I just discovered Retro Supply Co’s “**THE LETTERING LIBRARY MEGA BUNDLE” and I’m losing my mind. This is pure insanity, I’ve never seen anything like this. They’ve archived 125 rare vintage lettering books-it’s seriously gold. I’m so excited and inspired by this-and honestly a bit overwhelmed. THERE’S SO MUCH!
As of the time I am typing this there’s still time to get this massive digital archive for 75% off-that sale ends on 9/15/2023 at 11:59pm.

SCHRIFTEN ATLAS - PETZENDORFER HOFFMAN - 1909
The holy grail of Art Nouveau books, with more than 140 color plates of hundreds of impeccably rendered alphabets, monograms, full design layouts, initial letters, and much more. This German Goliath should be in anyone's digital collection who is even slightly interested in lettering.
ATKINSON'S SIGN PAINTING - FRANK ATKINSON - 1915
Commonly referred to as the "Sign-Painter's Bible", this book is the grand-daddy of all inspirational and instructional material in the sign world. This book has hundreds of full layouts for advertising, billboards, and beyond with a massive collection of alphabets from the commonplace to the downright obscure. The first section is an extremely in-depth primer in a variety of different skills from how to hold a brush all the way through gilding and glass work. This, above nearly all of the books in this collection, is a must own.

Martin's first book in this four part series, and an excellent volume from one of the most influential and inspirational sets of lettering books in history.
