The P22 book and deci annual report
The history of P22 Type Foundry, like all history, is filled with a mix of myth, fact, conjecture and legend. This book describes how the first ten years of P22 (1994–2004) transpired with their share of highs and lows and a legacy filled with many digital fonts and other fine things. This book in no way gives a concise history of P22 Type Foundry, but rather a lush view into a few select projects and details of the vast P22 empire. We could go on and describe more details of the book, but suffice to say it is epic. Produced as a limited edition in collaboration with Mohawk Paper, Eric Frick Photography, and Petit Printing. Surely never to be reprinted.
