Description

Ornate, bold, fanciful, lavish! From Gothic characters and florid fonts to simple, elegant lettering motifs, this magnificent collection of alphabet designs -- meticulously reproduced from a rare nineteenth-century portfolio -- offers up a dazzling choice of ornamental typefaces. More than 1,000 characters feature florals, animals, architectural elements, silhouettes, and more in glorious full color and crisp black and white. Many designs are presented in both upper and lower case formats. A wonderful resource for graphic designers and crafters, these stylized letters are ready-to-use...and poised to inspire! This book includes a CD-ROM containing 1200 royalty-free images scanned at 600 dpi and saved in six different formats (TIFF, PICT, EPS, BMP, as well as Internet-ready JPEG and GIF).
