First Edition. quarto, boards in dust jacket. 392pp. Mark Batty Publisher, This is the first of a planned series of hardcover anthologies drawing on the sum and substance of the respected and renowned journal MATRIX, produced for over 20 years by John and Rose Randle…at The Whittington Press. In this first Matrix anthology the focus is on type and typography. The carefully selected content spans centuries and continents. The list of contributors reads like a veritable "Who's Who" from the world of type and the book arts. Their subject matter is both esoteric and entertaining: Sebastian Carter on the types of Jan van Krimpen; Jan van Krimpen on " Preparing Designs for Monotype Faces"; John Dreyfus on the typographical importance of Maximillian Vox; James Mosley on "Eric Gill and the Golden Cockerel Type"; Jerry Kelly examining "The Dust Jacket Designs of Hermann Zapf"; and over 30 more. With over 200 illustrations.
