Summary
"ABZ more alphabets and other signs is a wonder book of complete alphabets, applied typography, and delightful emblems and logos culled from avant-garde modernist periodicals and other curious sources. Most of this rare and beautiful material is reproduced here for the first time since its original publication. Capricious and unpredictable, ABZ is an idiosyncratic reference and inspiration for lovers of eccentric graphic and type design."--Jacket.
