Emigre’s catalogue, page 22 is very aesthetic and interesting to look at. It intrigues you with the almost old timey look. Their little article is quite readable considering that the type they used in a condensed sans serif. The letters are nicely spaces and though the font size is a bit small, it’s still legible. They also used this scripted font thats less legible, but aesthetically… I didn’t need to know what the titles says anyway… I can barely even pronounce it-
They also used a light Serif, perhaps old-style (how fitting) around the image of the tempo tapper. It’s not very readable wit how light it is, but then again I don’t think it was meant to really be read or be the main focus of the article.
