Goudy Specimen

Last summer I spent a couple of days reading a biography about Fred Goudy, and the weeks after I had romatic daydreams of starting my own letterpress.

A few months ago I purchased a beautiful type specimen, manufactured and signed by the good Frederic, a Village Press type catalogue from 1914.

The specimen shows the typefaces Kennerly, Forum Title, initial letters and some of Village Press own borders and florals.

I thought I would share it with you.
