Abstract

The article examines how type bibles are being treated with more reverence by print historiography enthusiasts in 2016. Topics covered include how type specimen books are sources of all kinds of socio-historical and political documentation and how digital foundries such as Emigre, Hoefler, and Terminal continue to manufacture paper specimen sheets and posters as homages to the past.
