The first Hoefler type specimen at this trim size, and therefore featuring entirely new artwork. A return to writing in this catalog, including Hoefler’s notes on the design of the Decimal, Surveyor, Ringside, Inkwell, Operator, and Ideal Sans families, which appear in a type specimen for the first time, as do the Isotope, Landmark, Obsidian, Peristyle, Peristyle Stencil, Quarto, and Tungsten families. The endpapers are a dramatic redevelopment of the ‘ladder’ design that Hoefler introduced in the company’s first type specimen, expanded here from the original library of thirty typefaces to a palette of more than one thousand. 55,000 copies printed.
