The first sanserif type – ABYME

ABYME

New text – we just published ‘The first sanserif type’, written by James Mosley, about William Caslon IV’s ‘Two Lines English Egyptian’ of 1816. This text is a slightly revised and newly illustrated version of a pamphlet first printed in 1988. Read it at abyme.net
