Scientifically Speaking, by the BBC. This is another old book from my family’s library that has a nice cover.

Another cover from my family’s library. I like how the top, English half is in blue to set it off from the German portion. I feel like I should be able to identify the typeface but I can’t place it…

This is a Swiss tourism book disguised as a Swiss passport. The cover’s not particularly impressive, but I like that illustration of Switzerland! From my family’s library.

This type is incredibly funky—in a good way! That k is making me think of platform shoes.
These type sketches are interesting, although sometimes they don’t really work out. That 25 is gorgeous, however!
This cover design is unique in that it reads right to left. Apparently they only used this designer’s work for just the first two issues because they thought it was too controversial. You can read more about it at Display—it’s pretty interesting!
This is an interesting juxtaposition. I love how well the mountain serves as his shirt!

The really cool thing about this embroidery calendar is that each month’s title has a different style. I really like May’s.
I really love this embroidered calendar idea. That type is obviously walking the line of legibility, but in this context it works pretty well.
