โฆ Synopsis
Here's a book that every graphic artist and studio will want to have on hand. Noted typographer and print historian Dan X. Solo presents 100 complete, high-impact, copyright-free fonts in bold roman, italic, or cursive script. Almost all fonts come with lower- and upper-case alphabets, and almost all include numerals. Many also contain vignettes and/or various punctuation marks.
Among these fonts is a great variety of densities and styles, providing artists with a maximum number of opportunities for creating the right look ― from the elegant Adastra Royal to the commanding Elvira Bold Italic. Also available are Brandy Script, Derby, Discus Semibold, Fulton Sign, Gloriosky, Mardi Gras, Signwriter's Script, Veltro Bold, Brush, Diana Bold, Flash, Gillies Gothic, Lily Ann, Novelty Script, Swinger, Zorba Solid, and more than 80 other attractive fonts.
This treasury of outstanding, yet immensely practical typefaces is ready for effective use in headlines, newsletters, on posters, signs, menus ― all forms of print media.
