New: I went on a months-long treasure hunt for 1,200+ books spanning 450+ years to digitize Daniel Updike’s Printing Types from 1922, detailing the history of printing and typography. Made a nifty poster too.

@Rougeux This is an awe-inspiring undertaking. I’m thrilled to see scans of originals, and even more excited to have links to many of the references that Updike wasn’t able to show images of.
That makes this so much more than just an online transcription. What a tremendous resource.
Thanks for all the research, and for making this available.
(And I love that you used Matthew’s revival of Monticello! 🙂 )
