"Lovely little book for people who love typography" according to AZ Customer. This is a lovely little book (7" x 7") full of wonderfully creative examples of dozens of designers typographic letterpress work. The cover is produced on a letterpress but, unfortunately, the interior of the book is standard offset printing. Chronicle Books had no other choice, of course. However, some of the examples are lit is such a way that the subtle embossment of the letterpress process shows beautifully. This is a book for type fans but also is a rich graphic inspiration for all designers at 175 pages.. Good read Jessica Lyonford Great inspiration and tips.. "Great" according to Mathew. Great book, fast reading structure and big images samples and shorts referent quotes. It's perfect for any students of design! I totally recommend this book.
