“Just My Type” by Simon Garfield
“Comic Sans walks into a bar and the bartender says, ‘We don’t serve your type.'”
This joke–printed in, of course, Comic Sans–encapsulates the tone and content of Simon Garfield’s Just My Type. Garfield sprinkles his history of typefaces with humor and pop culture references, creating a fresh and insightful reference book for type novice and design geek alike.
