B3435. About More Alphabets: The Types of Hermann Zapf by Jerry Kelly with a foreword by Robert Bringhurst.<br />
2011. 112pp. 4.5"x7". Hardcover $35.00<br />
In 1960, the Typophiles published a now-treasured chapbook on Hermann Zapf ’s metal faces. More than<br />
50 years later, this new volume brings you up-to-date, presenting a selection of his major alphabet design<br />
projects. Even as letterforms have changed from metal to phototype to digital, Zapf has continued to produce<br />
exceptional typefaces – most drawing from pen-made forms. The book is filled with type drawings and trials and<br />
other illustrations, some rarely seen. Reserve your copy of this finely-printed letter art treasure designed by Jerry<br />
Kelly. (As a used book, the first Zapf chapbook can command $100 or more.)<br />
