Amazing specimen from the St. Petersburg printing house from 1870: apart from regular type examples they had “Our father in heaven” written in 325 languages from all over the world, also the version for blind people, not Braille yet: dlib.rsl.ru/viewer/010075061…

Oh man, the @RevivingType book arrived in the mail today, and I love it! This is my favorite paragraph,because it is a reminder that the best way to learn about type is not to just focus on digital fonts. – at Neukölln, Berlin
