Have you seen any printed books using slab serif?
A couple of kids books. But then that publisher also published a couple of books using Comic Sans. They published those have your kid's name as the protagonist books.

As for the types of serif? As I said, I prefer transitional serifs but that does not mean that I (at least not with a straight face) try to argue that Old Style, Didone, slab, Clarendon or glyphic were not also serif fonts.

For a real argument, are blackletter fonts serif fonts?
