Selections from Letterform Archive: An Auction Preview Event

Monday, May 3, 2021
3–4pm

Letterform Archive, a library and museum in San Francisco, has one of the world’s best collections of typographic history. With over 60,000 objects, there are hundreds of duplicates to be deaccessioned, and the nonprofit org has reserved the rarest of these gems for its first-ever auction. In anticipation of this special event, join Archive founder and curator Rob Saunders, Swann president and auctioneer Nicho Lowry, and Poster House curator Angelina Lippert for an auction preview. You’ll see iconic books, ephemera, type specimens, and other examples of typography, all of which you can add to your own collection while supporting Letterform Archive’s mission to preserve, share, and educate.
