It’s the most wonderful time of the year—the Letterform Archive annual book sale!
The heralded organization and curator of an invaluable online archive of type resources and references from the ages is hosting a rare book sale this Saturday, December 9. The sale will run both online and in person, so shoppers from near and far can take advantage of Letterform Archive’s incredible collection.
“We’re clearing out a treasure trove of rare duplicates from the collection, from 19th–20th-century type specimens and hard-to-find design books and periodicals, to ephemera and other design collectibles,” the organization explained on their Instagram.
The online sale will open exclusively to Letterform Archive members at midnight PST. Not a member? This is the perfect time to join! Or consider giving a Letterform Archive membership as a gift to a type-obsessed loved one. Annual memberships start at $30 and are available here.
Following the members-only preview, the online sale will open to the public at noon PST. For those in San Francisco, head to Letterform Archive’s headquarters for the in-person sale! The member preview will open at 10 am and run through noon, at which point the public is welcome to shop until 4 pm when the sale concludes.
You won’t want to miss this chance to acquire your very own piece of the Letterform Archive in your personal book collection. Mark your calendars now!
