The Donut Project » Hamilton Wood Type Catalog #14
The Hamilton Wood Type Catalog #14 is 125 pages of both classic and surprisingly iconic fonts, figures, icons and imagery. It’s so full of great inspiration and I plan on spending my evening flipping through the 90+ pages I didn’t make it through this morning. I used to run into a lot of problems finding good inspiration for vintage type and type treatments while in school and usually found a few labels, but nothing like this. If only I had ffffound this earlier!

Original John Berkey Sketches For Sale
These are "Prelims" Sketches that John Berkey has done over the years. These were rough sketches sent out to the client to approve for angle, color, content... Some of these were selected to be used as finals for John Berkey to paint from and some were never used as finals at all. These sketches were sent to the client and were handled by many people for review, so they might have pencil marks, scratches, dents and other imperfections on them. Some were signed when they were created and would be marked on this sheet as OS (Originally Signed) others are marked by SA which were signed later by John Berkey as they were being cataloged into the estate.

They are all free, though the licensing are different from font to font, so make sure you check the info page for information. Also want to warn you this is a long post :) But I wanted to have a good preview of each font.

40 Seriously Funny Print Ads
Print adverts need to get a message across with a single image and without the recourse of interactivity that we find today on the Internet. As interactive media expands, attention spans are getting shorter and shorter every day.

This is an area where the audience is far more receptive and still willing to pay attention. In this post, we’ve gathered 40 hilarious and really creative ads for your enjoyment…
