Rob Cooper posted this to Facebook and I've never seen the collection in this way, despite being involved in getting each individual one printed.

I think we'll get a few more under our belt and then do some kind of standalone publication/special insert.

PS. The link he has in the post is https://bl.ag/join where you can get the latest issue (https://bl.ag/08). For back issues, visit https://bl.ag/backissues, noting that extremely limited stock remains of issues 03 (turquoise) and 05 (yellow).

I will be showing these in my typography class where we are looking at integrating hand lettering and typefaces.

Coincidentally, typography and lettering are two areas of graphic design that AI is really, really bad at. The past becomes the future.

Really proud of this #book.
Jaka & Jaymes did a brilliant job w/ #art & #lettering. Hell, even the #writing isn't bad.

But we're far from our goal, so if you want it to exist, we could use a push:

I'm looking forward to hearing Ged Palmer's lecture for Letter Exchange next week.

The event is being held in London, but also livestreamed for those, like me, that are unable to attend in-person:
