Old English

Old English Text (series 356 and 456) is an adaptation of Cloister Black for the Monotype.

There are digitizations by Letraset, ITC, Linotype (all largely identical) as Old English, and by Monotype as Old English Text. Latter has shorter ascenders and is clearly different in diacritics and non-alphabetic characters.
