Design for Printing

The second booklet in Carl Dair’s series for the E. B. Eddy Company, Design for Printing explores various aspects of typography and paper. In eight concise chapters, Dair presents a comprehensive summary of the fundamental principles of design as applied to typography, illustrating their practical applications. These booklets were created for students enrolled in the emerging commercial art courses being introduced at colleges. Like Type & Paper, Design for Printing proved so popular that it soon warranted a second printing.
