"bodoni like" and slabserif type

unknown

Martha Stewart uses custom type.

It seems the slab serif font is called "Archer" and the serif font is "Surveyor" both created by Tobias Frere-Jones (http://www.typography.com/) for Barbara de Wilde, the former art director of Martha Stewart Living. Surveyor (which must be the italics on this cover) is based on old map fonts. See this article.

I couldn't find font showings for either, though. Maybe now that Martha's a bit hard up she'll sell these fonts to us peons to raise some cash.

Don't you think Martha will look stylish in pinstripes? Its a good thing

I for one like the all-orange prison wear, but that might be too street for Martha.

My first job was working for her (then) husband, 20 years ago. She wasn't nice to me. I can't feel too sorry for her.
