List of Typefaces
London: H. Hacker Limited, circa 1962.
First Edition.
"This is literally our list of typefaces, and we make no apology for not showing complete alphabets from 6 to 72 point. However for those who might say, 'what is Flash?', a sample setting is included in the form of useful advice, rather than in 'the quick brown fox' tradition of setting... In the hope that this type list will remain on top of the desk rather than buried by less worthy companions, we have included other items of interest. For example, there are details of some of the standard proof correction marks, the maximum size proof (3 ft 6 ins) that can be returned by post, and a diagrammatic description of what is left of a standard size sheet of paper when it is gripped, trimmed and bled."
