With their well-defined forms, rhythmical lines, and variously delicate, dignified, or fanciful air, these letters and symbols not only brilliantly satisfied their original design purpose, but are delightful to look at even today.This volume, a reedited reprint of a collection originally published in 1962, brings together the best of alphabet typography from ’60s Japan, including some seventy letter and number fonts both practical and ornamental along with roughly a thousand monograms combining letters and numerals in a variety of forms.Shipping • Economy Shipping: This option is free of charge.
