Inventory / important type Tuesday February 16 2010 11:32 am

Handcut ampersand

This is our favorite single piece of wood type that we have in our collection.

Sometime if I get a serious bit of energy it would be wonderful to try and develop a typeface based on this one ampersand.

When you look at it you can just see the wheels turning in the person-that-made-it’s mind as he has a general idea of a way to make shadow type. Anyone out there got another that looks like it might be part of this face?

We are getting ready to have the image made into T-shirts for Lead Graffiti to maybe wear at the National Stationery Show.
