Capital Letters / Carothers, Martha ; Thompson B., 1992
The main text was selected from Beatrice Warde's 1951 essay, "The Design of Books." The subtext was taken from Bradbury Thompson's 1945 essay in "Westvaco Inspirations." Warde's text on the lack of reading is interpreted in a set of 8 books with each book designed as a typographic reaction to Thompson's monoalphabet and alphabet 26 type experiments. Carothers forms words with capital and lowercase letters of the same size and weight to impart unusual appearances. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
