A fractured wrist has kept me away from blogging, but I will mention type historian Stan Nelson’s upcoming talk at St Bride on Tuesday 24 May.
It took us a long time to get this publicised and I am worried that means hardly anyone will go. Stan is one of a very small number of people alive (surely measurable in the low tens) who can carry out the processes involved in typefounding and we’re lucky that he has agreed to present his talk (originally given at Norwich Cathedral) at St Bride. I’m sure it will be fascinating and I know that it is a very rare opportunity to learn about the craft from a practitioner. http://stbride.org/events?show=agenesisofsorts
