Beautiful Book
I've been interested in graphic design and typography for quite some time and I was excited to finally find a cool resource for some interesting style inspiration. This really is a beautiful book with retro embossed images that take up the full page. I showed it to a coworker on the graphic design team and she instantly bought it. Don't hesitate to purchase!

Truly Inspiring.
As a collector of great design books. This is a highlight of my collection. It's on a separate shelf with the books that have sentiment or signed, even though this only came in the mail. However, this book deserves to be shown in my best location because of its craft & quality. It's probably the best book I own. Truly Inspiring.

Excellent book - cover was a bit rough
The book is wonderful; I do think that the book was graded a bit high. I was well aware of the remainder mark, however, the description did not mention a large scuff to the "leatherette" cover, which exposed white against the dark background. I remedied it by using dark shoe polish to hide as best as possible. I do think this scuff should have been disclosed. Despite the scuff, I still think it was a good buy for the book and I am enjoying it very much.

Fantastic history of hipster graphic design firm, House Industries
Fantastic history of the hipsters behind the terrific House Industries graphic design firm. The content of the book is incredible, but of course the design is great as well. If you're a fan of their work, you'll love it. If you're a fan of typography and/or graphic design, you'll love it.

Libro bellissimo
Libro molto ma molto bello sul processo creativo di questa Fonderia digitale che crea ed ha creato caratteri iconici. Stampato in modo eccellente, un piacere anche solo da guardare ma ancor più da leggere. Consigliato.

Expectations satisfied
what I expected was satisfied - not less, but not more. The Cover itself is a lot more exciting in design, than the rest inside.
