Emigre is happy to partner with San Francisco-based Letterform Archive on a reissue of our first volume of type specimens, an ample tome first published in 2016 and since sold out. But this time, we nearly doubled its already impressive extent to more than 1,200 pages and added new texts by Letterform Archive associate curator Stephen Coles and longtime Emigre collaborator Jeffery Keedy. In addition to specimens not included in the first volume, Licko and VanderLans also revisited their type design process files to create a special behind-the-scenes section, offering readers a look at their photos, sketches, and hand-written correspondence.
