Item description from seller

94 pages, illustrated. The author "observes the typographic scene from the perspective of sixty years of close involvement with the design and technology of the printed word. In the first group of essays in this book there is an outline of the growth of typography as a professional activity and a concise account of the progress of type designs in the twentieth century, particularly in the 1920s and 30s, with reflections on the innovations and commerical implulses in their development; and there are personal judgements of the contributions made by some of the influential figures in the typographic scene." FINE HARDCOVER, FINE DUST JACKET. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
