Letragraphica was a subset of Letraset, and I seem to remember waiting every six months of so for each new catalog.

Thanks oldnick. I have a chance to pick up a copy of Letragraphica, Characteres Letraset D’Avant Garde 1977 and I was wondering if there were other catalogues I can also look for.

The content is inspirational stuff - well to me it is anyways. After some digging I found that volume featured on - http://acejet170.typepad.com/foundthings/2007/06/index.html (shown down at the bottom of the page).

I have an incomplete set of Letraset supplementary catalogs from the Seventies and Eighties. Only a few are what you could call Letragraphica catalogs, but most of them have Letragraphica faces in them:

18 New Type Faces / Letragraphica / Featuring Letraset International Typeface Competition Winners 1973 (1973)

Range Extension 1974

Letragraphica 16, 17, and 18 (1974)

Letragraphix Number Two (features Ray Cruz; no date, probably 1975)

New Typefaces 1976

Letragraphix Number Three (designed by Kit Hinrichs, 1976)

Catalog Supplement ’77 (1977)

Letragraphix Volume Four (designed by SVA students, 1977)

The Letragraphica Gallery (purple, orange and red cover; no date, but probably 1977 or 1978)

The Letragraphica Gallery (black and brown cover; no date, but probably 1979)

Letragraphix Volume 6 (no date, probably 1979)

Sweet Treats (1980)

Letragraphix Volume 7 (1980)

Graphic Treasures (1981)

Letragraphix Volume 8 (1981)

Art-I-Facts (1982)

Celebrate New Letraset Products (1984)

LetraGazette Issue No. 1 (1984)

LetraGazette Issue No. 3 (1985)

LetraGazette Issue No. 5 (1986)

(The ones where I have guessed at the dates are based on what typefaces were announced in the catalog.)

One other thing: These were all U.S. editions.

Mark, nice looking stack you got there! LetraGazette sounds interesting and I see a few others I’m going to hunt down too.

Thanks for mentioning Kit Hinrichs, I hadn’t heard his name before. I took a look at some of his stuff online and read a few articles/interviews, he seems well grounded.

The Letragraphix editions featured well known designers and illustrators. The early ones look more like brochures, the later ones look more like newsletters (more text). A bit of trivia: Letragraphix Volume 6 features the winners of the “Liberated Letter” contest, and one of the winning entries is by Rick Tharp. The “Art-I-Fact” editions are not as nice-looking.
