Case shows slight bowing to the boards. Dj with mild chipping to head and ~half inch closed tear at the front foot.

This profusely illustrated book collects most of Zapf's writings in/translated to English. An essential book for any typographer or book designer's library. Hermann Zapf (1918 – 2015) was a German typeface designer and calligrapher who lived in Darmstadt, Germany. His career in type design spanned the three stages of Twentieth Century Printing: hot metal composition, phototypesetting (also called cold type), and digital typesetting.
