Extra Condensed No.2

£12.00
sold out

Numbers & a number of pilcrows

Issue No.2 of Extra Condensed has a particularly numerical theme: from the origins of ‘spitting image’ to Stephenson Blake’s charming San Serif No.7, via a wander through the peculiar world of letter frequency and the printing of issue No.1. Every article also features its own pilcrow, each taken from a different fount in our collection.

Written, designed, typeset and printed by hand in a limited edition of just 200 (although this still involved over 2,250 hand pulled prints). Each issue is individually numbered and comes folded in a custom printed envelope.

See more details in our portfolio.

Printed in black and bright green on 90gsm newsprint.

Edition of 200
8 pages
304mm x 431mm

A note on shipping
Prices exclude postage and packing—which will be added at the checkout—and we’ve done our best to keep these costs as low as possible. Thanks to Brexit, if you are buying from outside the UK, you may also incur import duty or taxes, which we have no control over. If you have any questions or problems, please get in touch and we’ll do our best to work it out.
