		<description><![CDATA[Perfect typography is a science rather than an art. A thorough grasp of the craft is indispensable but it is not all, for the sound taste which distinguishes the perfect is based on a clear knowledge of the laws of harmonious form. It is true that it springs, as a rule, even though only in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If an ordinary book deserves to be produced with the greatest possible care, then, certainly, so does a classic. The word ‘classic’ is perhaps too freely used nowadays, and is indeed applied to many more books than would have been the case fifty years ago. But all books whose value has been proved to be [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Editors’s Note: Frederic W. Goudy, the greatest of American type designers died almost twenty-two years ago, on May 11, 1947. That he still has something to say to the typographer of the 60’s is evident from the following excerpt.
One hundred and twelve years ago type design was generally imagined to be a matter that concerned [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Swash may suggest to today’s younger designer the modern application of numerous curliques and exaggerated strokes to Bookman and numerous other faces—even to Helvetica—but the typographer with a background in metal types is more likely to think of Caslon and Garamond, with their traditional sets of graceful swash letters.
