An exquisite box set of correspondence cards featuring a charming selection of modular stencil designs from the beloved American typographer William Addison Dwiggins.
In the late 1920s, graphic designer W.A. Dwiggins developed a rhythmic and delicate visual language composed of tiny geometric elements. He cut these modular shapes into cellophane stencils and used them to create wonderfully complex illustrations in his book designs, including abstract typographic ornaments, elegant architectural motifs, intricate page borders and delightful all-over patterns. Dwiggins referred to his organic yet graphic vignettes, which he first experimented with in woodblock printing and stamping, as "sprigs, leaves and flowers."
Published by Letterform Archive in 2025. 20 unique correspondence cards, each measures 3 x 5 inches. ISBN 9798991621229
