typocurious note 12
In honor of his birthday this month, Typocurious digs into the Lawson-Provan file of the scholar-printer Giovanni Mardersteig (8 January 1892–27 December 1977). Today’s Mardersteig-related post culled from the May 1969 issue of the Monotype Newsletter (number 85).
Here is “Giovanni Mardersteig: A Specimen of Dante and its New Semi-Bold Face.”
