It is: about how Helvetica & Comic Sans took over the world; about why Barack Obama opted for Gotham while Amy Winehouse found her soul in 30s Art Deco; about the great originators of type from Baskerville to Zapf or people like Neville Brody who threw out the rulebook or Margaret Calvert who invented the motorway signs that are used from Watford Gap to Abu Dhabi; about the pivotal moment when fonts left the world of Letraset & were loaded onto computers...and typefaces became something we realised we all have an opinion about.
