Discover fancy lettering styles found at traditional British fairgrounds up until the 1960s with All the Fonts of the Fair by Joby Carter. Many of these vibrant, whimsical designs are missing from graphic design manuals and typography archives, and this book helps continue their legacy, giving them a new lease of life.
This book includes 26 hand-drawn, fairground-inspired alphabets. Each alphabet has a reference guide with tips on how to accurately recreate the lettering, alongside details of the origin of the style and photographs of variations of the lettering in use.
