Just a few weeks ago marked 1 year for me with birdsong gregory! I can't believe how quickly time has gone by. I was looking back recently on my first ever blog post with bg and thought that since a year has gone by since that time, that sharing similar subject matter with you would be appropriate for today. In case you don't know, I shared one of my favorite inspirational resources for my very first blog post. Now a new one is on my mind, a type nerd's paradise. Filled with popular, rare and even forgotten specimens of type, Steven Heller's Scripts: Elegant Lettering for Design's Golden Age is a compilation of scripts form Britain, Italy, France, Germany, and the USA from the 19th to mid-20th century. It's jam packed with amazing sources ranging from advertising and street signs to personal letters and invitations (even IOUs!). Check out this awesome type find, and stay plugged in to see how it inspires birdsong gregory.
