An Introduction to the History of Printing Types: An Illustrated Summary of the Main Stages in the Development of Type Design from 1440 Up to the Present Day : an Aid to Type Face Identification - Tapa dura
Reseña del editor:
Originally published in 1961, this survey of the history of type design covers the changes which occurred over five centuries, (exemplified by the ways in which the great printer-publishers used types) reflecting often radically different approaches to the dissemination of texts. It describes types created by designers such as Baskerville, Bodom, Caslon, Morison and Goudy. In addition to the text, the book has been enhanced by many illustrations chosen from items in the collections of the British Library and the St Bride Foundation Printing Library. It should be of interest to typographers, graphic designers and printing historians.

Descripción Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. This 'Near Fine' classic hardback was published jointly by The British Library and the US Oak Knoll Press in 1998. This book was printed in the UK. The book was first published in 1961. It surprises this bookseller that it is not clear what changes have been made between the first 1961 printing and this edition. The ABE Stock Image photograph is accurate for this copy. The book has no defects to disclose, while the 'Very Good' dust-jacket has minor wear on the top edge. The book is bound with black binding paper on stiff boards. The spine titles are in gilt. The book has 277 numbered pages. The book has many illustrations, showing the range of varied printing types over the centuries. The size of the book in inches is 10.1 x 6.3 and it weighs 0.84 kg. As with all our sales of books within the UK, we only ever charge a flat standard delivery cost of £3.35. Nº de ref. del artículo: 005312
