Veronese (series 59) was a typeface of the Monotype company in the UK made to be used for type casting in hot metal typography It was cut in 1911 for the publisher J. M. Dent, the owner of the Everyman's Library.
The typeface was launched in 1912 in a collection of the poems of Lorenzo De Medici which was published by Ballantyne Press.
Dent however wanted to use machines to produce the type for his trade editions for his Everyman's Library.
The font Monotype produced was almost a copy of Golden Type, but with sharper slab serifs, and cleaner lines.
A lighter version was produced in 1919 after the First World War, with bracketed serifs, and named Italian Old Style series 108.
