This book of type specimens is rad. I’m not sure why I have been finding so many that are written in French lately, but good type looks great, regardless of language.
The well traveled surfer/artist Eric Soderquist and freelance photography Chris Burkard teamed up with Chronicle Books to create this rad book that documented their journey down the west coast.
These two dudes…cajoled their Volkswagen bus along Highway 1 from the Oregon border to the Tijuana Sloughs and discovered everything the Golden State’s legendary coastline has to offer.
Even if you don’t know a single thing about surfing, like me, you’ll probably be into these lush photos filled with epic scenery. More info here and get a peek of some of their adventures after the jump.
Loads of updates are flying in from Ray Fenwick’s second book Mascots (Fantagraphics). The book is composed of Ray’s world famous hand lettering, wit, charm, good looks, and magical scent. It is now available for pre-order and after the jump you can view a ridiculous “Trailer” for it!
Jim Stoten has a new publication, Inside the Purple Palm Tree, available through my favorite independent publishers Nobrow! Just like everything Mr. Stoten does, this book is filled with his wild style and killer color combinations.
Printed and bound by hand, the book measures 20×29 cm, printed in four lush colours is our largest Small Press book to date and was printed using 24 separate screens.
