Its straight hairline serifs (the flourishes on some letters) and high contrast between thick and thin strokes are everywhere. The logos of Valentino and Calvin Klein are inspired by Bodoni, and it appeared on the cover of Bruce Springsteen’s 1984 album, “Born in the U.S.A.” To trace the typeface’s history, [my colleague Molly Young went to Parma, Italy](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRnxNYxP0TbaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyNC8wMi8yOS9ib29rcy9ib2RvbmktbXVzZXVtLXR5cGVmYWNlLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyNDAzMDEmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9MTE2NTQ0Jm5sPXRoZS1ldmVuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xNTk2MzMmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmXgMVHiZfw_OKpSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAw~~), where the Museo Bodoniano has an entire collection about the man behind the letters.
