The Typofiles #49: Lettering for Reproduction by David Gates











I am a big fan of vintage typography books and one of my favorites is Lettering for Reproduction by David Gates which was originally published in 1969. The basics of type are always important to learn and this has many visuals. You can view all of The Typofiles on Flickr here.

Man, looking at that book, I would have thought it was released very recently. It has all the design elements and style and fonts you see on super nice website (such as yours). And then you say 1969. Sheesh! That totally surprised me. I guess good typography stands the test of time.
