Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition, ststed first printing, April 1963. Folio, 212 pages, very good condition in glazed boards and metal spiral binding, boards rubbed, wear to the corners of the boards. Black easel fold-out back board. Author's presentation inscription and signature on half-title page. Do…es not contain any underlinings, highlighting, markings, notations, or folds. Actual book is pictured. See images provided. The most important feature of this book is the systematic approach undertaken by Mr. Biegeleisen in presenting a library of typefaces with such clarity and consistency. The book contains over 700 typefaces but only 75 have been featured for large viewing and analysis. This selection represents a good one from the practical point of view of the typographer, artist and layout man. Each featured typeface is shown in its entirety from A to Z and in jumbo size, so that it may be clearly studied, analyzed, copied or traced. In addition--and this is a most helpful feature--there is a thorough analysis of each type in terms of its design origin, characteristics and practical uses. A unique self-measuring pica scale tells at a glance the casting width of 6 or 7 sizes of each typeface shown, in a graduated reduction scale. A clean very presentable copy. Inscribed by Author(s).
