Scripts never go out of style, and the hundreds of inventive examples here - many found in obscure sources from across Europe and America - are sure to inspire today's designers.

Derived from handwriting, these are typefaces that are stylized to suggest, imply or symbolize certain traits linked to writing.

From wedding invitations to advertisements, from menus and street signs to diplomas, script typefaces lend elegance and sophistication to a wide range of designs.

Drawn from the Golden Age of scripts, from the 19th to the mid-20th century, this collection will be an invaluable sourcebook for anyone with an interest in graphic design or typography.
