(Preface) 'THIS IS A TYPE BOOK with a dual purpose. It is an easy reference book for the experienced typo-grapher, with a thumb index and a chart at the beginning of the book to make identification simple and showing at a glance what sizes of the various typefaces are available for machine setting or hand composition.

It is also an illustrated type book intended to be something of a guide and help to the less experienced designer and print user, and it gives some lead in the uses and character of typefaces. The illustrations should help to illuminate both the character and the period of origin of many of these typefaces...'
