Slab Serif Type: A Century of Bold Letterforms
Steven Heller
Since being introduced in the 19th century, when they were considered the bastard cousins of more refined serif types, slab serif typefaces have become ubiquitous. Following the cult typography volumes Scripts, Shadow Type and Stencil Type, this volume artfully selects classic examples to present fresh and unexpected typographic ideas.
