The Parts of a Letter
Doyald Young · 1995 · Letterpress broadside
A teaching broadside designed by Young in 1995, dissecting the anatomy of a letter, apex, crossbar, terminal, spur, bracket, ear, spine, tail, across a hand-picked run of letterforms and figures. Printed letterpress by Patrick Reagh in Sebastopol, California, at 16 x 26 inches. This copy is inscribed "To Stefan / DY 4-2004," a signed and gifted piece passed from Stefan Bucher to Justin.
Letters are things, not pictures of things.Doyald Young
