This print showcases a stunning collection of Ornamented Two-line Letters from Joseph Fry & Sons, dating back to 1785. The English School of the 18th century has beautifully preserved this piece in a private collection, allowing us to marvel at its intricate details and historical significance. The image captures the essence of typography and lettering artistry, with each capital letter exquisitely designed and meticulously crafted. This alphabet specimen represents an era when printing presses were at the forefront of communication and played a vital role in disseminating information. The font used in these letters is both elegant and bold, making it suitable for various typesetting purposes. Whether it was used for books, newspapers, or other printed materials during that time remains unknown. However, one can imagine how impactful these ornamental two-line letters would have been on readers back then. With Latin inscriptions adorning each character, this typeface holds an air of sophistication while maintaining its practicality as well. The pica size and great primer style further enhance the overall aesthetic appeal of this design.
