The Letterform Archive
by Margaret Penney | October 12, 2016
It’s an incredibly inspiring collection with web previews that expand to really show the detail in each letterform, plus they offer high-resolution samplers from recent acquisitions of type collections.
For an aspiring or seasoned type designer alike, it’s one of the best resources for historical type reference online. Included here is a selection of some favorites from the gallery, but don’t just take our word for it, visit the gallery yourself.
