Recently in Paris I had a lovely day with pictography aficionados like me: Loïc Marleix @MoritzBrouhaha (Clermont-Ferrand), Olivier Morin (Paris), and Edgar Walthert @eWalthert (Amsterdam), talking all day about communication via signs and visiting Antoine Lefebvre and his extraordinary @hon_bookstore for art and design rarities https://www.hon-bookstore.com/categorie-produit/topic/ @tuqtuli

Après le cyan, le magenta et le jaune, ce quatrième catalogue est logiquement noir et il regorge de trésors graphique. Les spécimens en occupent la plus grande partie, avec deux spécimens généraux de Deberny avant Peignot et un lot augmenté de tracts Deberny & Peignot accompagnés de formats similaires de D. Stempel AG et de la Fonderie Typographique Française. Nous sommes ravis de proposer des spécimens ITC et une sélection de spécimens et de catalogues Emigre.

Et n'hésitez pas à venir boire un café et discuter typo si vous êtes à Paris. 

Following cyan, magenta, and yellow, our fourth catalogue is logically black and it is packed with graphic design and typographic rarities. The specimens occupy the biggest part with two general specimens of Deberny before Peignot and an augmented set of the Deberny & Peignot tracts accompanied by similar formats by D. Stempel AG and Fonderie Typographique Française. We were also delighted to come across early ITC specimens and to offer a selection of Emigre specimens and catalogues.
