I had no idea that so much of what
we take for granted in modern design was
hard won and viciously fought for.

the first pic in my blog is from Bethnal Green
it includes various modern toys shaped as letters


this book alphabeasties by Sharon Werner and Sarah Forss
was one of the better modern examples I came across in my search. It
came out in 2009 and features all sorts of animals made up of the letters they start with

this work was cited in our text it is Lewis Carroll's excerpt from Alice in Wonderland
" A Mouses Tale"


this is a fantastic use of typography from famed designer Paul Rand.
