In Type Tells Tales, Steven Heller and Gail Anderson break down this preconception, uncovering examples of typography that speaks - or shouts - with a voice of its own. Letters take on the form of people or animals, wander off the page, or appear in dramatically varying sizes to create a typographic pantomime. This is type that is integral to the message it is expressing, letterforms that explode the boundaries of printed expression. The designers featured in this eclectic collection give a new voice to all forms of writing, from fairy tales and children's books to rap lyrics and literary classics. Experimenting with diverse media, they lift typography away from the printed page and show that everything - from baseball bats and clothing to the human body - can be transformed into typographic art.'\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition: \u003c\/b\u003eVery Good.
