| Item Description: |
"This edition ... has been made to the typographic plan of Eugene Ettenberg. The two volumes have been designed in the form of an explorer's journal, and the text has been set in the Monticello type. Though of recent design, Monticello is based on the first successful American typeface. The parent face, cast by Archibald Binny at Philadelphia in 1789, was the most popular native typeface of Jefferson's time."--Colophon, volume 2. |
