Detailed information

Das hätt' ich gerne schriftlich: die elegantesten Schriftarten der Druckgeschichte in historischen Schriftmusterbüchern. Diese auf einer angesehenen niederländischen Sammlung basierende, umfangreiche Ausgabe zeichnet die Entwicklung der Druckbuchstaben anhand von ausnehmend schönen Katalogen nach. Sie zeigt Typenproben in mageren, kursiven, fetten, halbfetten, schmalen und breiten Fonts. Bordüren, Ornamente, Initialen und Verzierungen sowie exemplarische Lithografien, Briefe von Schildermalern, Inschriftenschnitzern und Kalligrafien sind ebenso enthalten.

Der erste Teil stellt Schrifttypen aus der Zeit vor dem 20. Jahrhundert vor und enthält Essays des Herausgebers Cees de Jong und des Sammlers Jan Tholenaar. Der zweite Teil deckt die Phase von 1900 bis zur Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts ab und enthält einen geschichtlichen Abriss von Alston W. Purvis. Mit Werken von Schriftendesignern wie William Caslon, Fritz Helmuth Ehmcke, Peter Behrens, Rudolf Koch, Eric Gill, Jan van Krimpen, Paul Renner, Jan Tschichold, A. M. Cassandre, Aldo Novarese und Adrian Frutiger.
