[Production drawing for Arcadia Italic f by Dwiggins]
Dwiggins’s Arcadia was a face that was only used twice: Once in a book that’s not so hard to find and the other time was in a little 1947 specimen booklet which is pretty uncommon and we sold for not a lot and wish that we still had. Will we feel the same way about letting go this production drawing for an italic f that has notations in Dwiggins’ hand? Let’s find out.
