Salvo Sans & Salvo Serif
Cyrus Highsmith designed Salvo Sans & Salvo Serif (originally called Boomer Sans & Boomer Serif) as one series to tie the design of AARP The Magazine to AARP The Bulletin and AARP Segunda Juventud. Together the Salvos illustrate the guiding sentiments of the design director Courtney Murphy, “Hopeful, informative, alive, embracing and delightful. The right words draw people in, but on a subconscious level the typeface does that first.” FB 2007, 2011

30 styles each: Light, Regular, Medium, Bold, and Black, all with Italics, in Normal, Condensed, and Extra Condensed Widths

Salvo Sans & Salvo Serif are available as OpenType fonts with both proportional and tabular figures plus arbitrary fractions.
