Today's inspiration came from a gift given to me by a friend and colleague who loves all things typographic.
It reads:
The lettermaker of the twentieth century
has not got to be an inventor of letter
forms but simply a man of intelligence
and good will.
Whether in stone, wood, paint or metal
The common problem, yours mine, everyone's,
is–not to fancy what were fair in life
Provided it could be–but, finding first
What may be, then find out how to make it fair
and the word fair can be taken in both its
senses–it means both beautiful and just.
p.s: the yellow looked so much nicer before :(
Also, the entire set and others that I am still working on would be
lovelier if I could screen-print or letter-press maybe? (w/o ink) Hmm...
p.s.s: don't forget to put in your xmas card orders!
