Scotch Roman. (the font)

Don't use a condensed Garalde, they always look awkward imho. Their more organic construction doesn't translate very well when horizontally condensed. You'd be better off with a more rationalist construction. I'd recommend something like Chronicle.

I'm after a serifed font that has a condensed weight and looks traditional. Any thoughts?
