(Foreword) 'This second edition of the Bauer catalogue is more than a mere type specimen book. It is in a very true sense a gallery of modern art – a collection of the handiwork of the greatest designers of Europe and America. It is a preview of what the best and smartest advertisements will wear for seasons to come. Here are paraded all the favourite BauerType faces, and the latest designs – Futura, Beton, Trafton Script, Corvinus, Gillies Gothic, Cartoon and Legend. Types that have played - and continue to play - a leading part in the transformation that is taking place in English typography today...'
