Hand job : a catalog of type / Michael Perry. by Perry, Michael, 1981 July 19- Princeton Architectural Press, c2007. Call #: 686.22 P464h Subjects Type and type-founding -- Specimens.   Type designers.   Typographers.   Printing -- History -- 20th century. ISBN:  9781568986265 (pbk.) 1568986262 (pbk.) Description:  254 p. : chiefly ill. (some col.) ; 26 cm. Summary:  In this digital age of computer-generated graphics and typography, it's refreshing to find typographers who still believe in working by hand. No longer relegated to designer's sketchbooks, hand-drawn type has emerged from the underground as a dynamic vehicle for visual communication from magazine, book, and album covers to movie credits and NFL advertisements. Hand Job collects groundbreaking work from fifty of today's most talented typographers who draw by hand. Graphic designer and hand typographer Michael Perry selects work representing the full spectrum of design methods and styles. Each hand-drawn work is entirely shaped by the artist's unique process every one a carefully executed composition enhanced by unplanned 'accidents' of line, color, and craft. Hand Job also includes photographs of found type, artists studios, and the tools that help make typography come to life.
