WRITING & ILLUMINATING, & LETTERING av Edward Johnston, med diagram och illustrationer av författaren och Noel Rooke är en handbok för kalligrafer. Den innehåller det mesta som är värt att veta om traditionella material och metoder, till exempel hur man skär gåspennor och hur man lägger bladguld. ERIC GILL har skrivit kapitlet - »Inscriptions in Stone«. EDWARD JOHNSTON, Brittisk kalligraf (1872-1944) studerade medeltidens handskrifter och återupptäckte gamla tekniker. Han undervisade på London Central School of Arts and Crafts samt vid Royal College of Art. Han skapade också det typsnitt som sedan 1916 används på skyltarna i Londons tunnelbana.  Köp

 Decoration
and Its UsesEdward Johnston, John Charles Tarr ISBN 0898154014 Ten Speed Press, 1991 From The Publisher »Johnston traces the development of letterforms and type, and the use and application of formal writing. Among the topics of importance to calligraphers and designers are the value of decoration, its proper application, and its practice and usage. Includes diagrams of page layouts illustrating how calligraphy is applied to book work. The essay was handlettered in 1930 by John C. Tarr, a former student of Johnstons, to illustrate the teachings of his past master. The pages were sewn into a simple paper over boards binding with a cloth spine. It was originally published in book form in 1971. This new edition re-introduces the book to a new audience.« Buy
