Book description
This collaborative project began with a 1970s type specimen catalogue from J Culpin. Twenty-six type sheets were selected and folded to form individual covers. The letters within the title of each typeface were used to form a four or five word phrase that was started by one person and passed back and forth until each letter had been utilised to complete the sequence. Each book contains a single letterpress printed phrase and an alphabetical listing.
