"This revised one-line type specimen book is intended rather to serve as an interim showing of all current type faces available at Adcraft, while our type specimen book is in progress. This new type book contains a comprehensive showing for every size of every type face in our constantly expanding library...Wherever possible, 18 point one-line specimens have been used throughout this book for foundry type and 10-point one-line specimens for machine faces in order to provide a basis for comparison. Initials, ornaments and borders can be ordered by number." --Front matter
