Item description from seller

191 Seiten, OKart. (Klappen-Kart.), 22 x 14,5 cm. Über klassisches Schriftschneiden. Der niederländische Schriftdesigner Fred Smeijers ist 1961 geboren. - Hg. von Robin Kinross. - In englischer Sprache. - "Western typography is still dominated by letterforms designed in the first hundred years of printing. What are the processes that lie behind these forms? This book provides a close-up view of the sixteenth-century French and Flemish punchcutters. On the basis both of his own experience in making type and a hard look at the surviving evidence, Fred Smeijers blows away the antiquarian dust that now covers the topic" (Klappentext). - Provenienz: Zeichen der Zeit (Bucheignerzeichen einer nicht genannten Typografin auf der vorderen Umschlaginnenklappe). - Gutes Exemplar.
