Wide Latin font family

Overview

Wide Latin has been much used and not a little abused as well. For example, more logotypes than you can shake a stick at have used Wide Latin. It has also been used with the serifs knocked off the right hand side to give a feeling of speed. Sometimes the type will be oblique as well. Do you remember the PanAm Airlines logo?
