A companion to the beloved title Meet the Lithographer, Meet the Typographer showcases the fascinating evolution and technique of letterpress printing in colorful and engaging illustrations.

Gaby Bazin takes readers into the studio, unveiling the enchanting world of movable type.
Following the mission of the children’s imprint at David Zwirner Books, this publication illuminates yet another creative role in the art industry, offering a distinct perspective on the printed medium and the fine art of typography.
