Eight exquisite typefaces make up this collection: Artistik, Bocklin, Baldur, Auriol, Carmen, Franconia, Siegfried, and Edda Bold. Each royalty-free style is conveniently shown in 24-, 36-, and 48-point sizes and is clearly printed on one side only on repro-quality stock so you can cut and combine letters directly from this book.
