Swash is it

This is my favorite type book right now. I already have various others and I wish I had gotten this one first instead of the Circus stuff. Victorian is useful, but the swashes are it. Each alphabet as several versions of different letters, and not only has that offered more flexibility in using the type, but it has made me think of new ways to handle typography and custome lettering in my other work. This is a great book of alphabets to have on hand whether you're doing wedding announcements or band posters (or even identities).
