A must purchase for every tatto parlor.......2006-12-22
You think I'm kidding, but I am not. I do not know how many times I have searched the calligraphy books for "Old English" for proletariats who wished just the correct typography to permanently stain some dopey word to their body, apparently to guarantee a lifetime of minimum wage employment. This is just what they are looking for. 100 pages of fonts, one of which is guaranteed to meet the victim's expectations. So, you do not need to be a calligrapher to buy this book. A tattoo parlor or even a public library will find this book indispensible. I'm not kidding.
perfect book.......2006-11-10
lots of complete fonts, Capital, lowercase and numbers. has everything i wanted so i could practice and master any style i want.

A useful graphic tool for craftspeople.......2000-05-28
Although the content of this book overlaps other collections by Carol Belanger Grafton, it displays a wide variety of motifs and typography from the Renaissance to the Victorian era. Professionals may be dismayed that some of the more ornate alphabets are incomplete, and that for unexplained reasons, the letter "j" hardly ever shows up. A beautiful and intricate alphabet of letters designed to look like building blueprints is only complete for the letter "A". The end of the book is filled with other alphabets which are banal compared to what the cover seems to offer. Still, like most books compiled by Grafton, this one offers a wide and useful choice of good quality intricate line drawings. If this info were available on CD, like other Dover publications, it would make life that much easier.
Book Description
Treasury of eye-catching typefaces with casual or country air. Annie Oakley, Hedge Row, Stuntman, Ticonderoga Bold, numerous others. All include complete uppercase alphabet, many with lowercase fonts, numerals and punctuation marks as well. Ideal for graphic projects requiring interesting or unusual lettering.
Customer Reviews:
Magnificent display fonts. Hands down the best in the series.......1998-10-13
I was in a bookstore in Toronto and stumbled across the different Dover font books and was instantly in love with all of them. Wisely, my significant other gave me a limit of ONE book to buy. "Fine," I said as I began poking through the books. It didn't take me long to realize which one of the books was superior. With stunning creativity and originality, this collection caught my eye and had me digging in my wallet. If only I would have known about Amazon.com then, I might have saved me a loon or two.
