Custom Lettering of the ‘20s & ‘30s is a celebration of the beautiful and stylistically diverse hand-drawn lettering that dominated book covers, magazines, posters and advertising in the inter-war period. Elegant modernistic type experiments jostle for attention with playful expressive brush lettering, illustrated novelties, heavy geometric sans serifs, dramatic inlines, drop shadows and all manner of outré typographic extravagances. With over 6,000 images categorised by style for easy reference, this book is an invaluable typographic inspiration for the designer, typophile, vintage magpie and anyone with an interest in 20th century culture. A cornerstone of any type-lovers library.
