I once made copies from issues of Typographica (is that
new series or old BTW?) but only the articles that really
interested me. What was that one about? When I have time I
can look in my "deep archives" (dusty boxes in the garage :-).

Hey cheers for replying.

It's basically a visual essay by Robert Brownjohn using photographs of found type e.g signs, lettering etc.

It was published in Issue 4 of Typographica (new series):

Typographica 4, 1961 (78 pages). Contents: Mile-a-minute typography?; Road signs in Holland; Street level (by Robert Brownjohn; The Civic Trust and lettering: a visit to Epping.

I found one small image, but was looking for the article in full.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have to say it's unlikely that I photocopied that particular
article, but when I get a chance I'll certainly check anyway.

Hi Nick

I see you're in the UK. Places to look for old back issues of Typographica would be the archives of The Department of Typography & Graphic Communication and of course, St. Bride Library. Both in London rather than Manchester.

Hi Ben,

Thanks, Ill check these out. Looks like St. Bride's has closed for the time being.
