Typographic Oddities

Typographic stories your parents never told you.  

Join Museum President Frank Romano on Saturday, July 21st, for a fact-filled and fun-filled romp through the world of fonts and type. Learn why Gutenberg was not very bright, how Garamond tripped up a Facebook forger, and the strange tale of Baskerville’s peripatetic body. You will learn; you will laugh; you will have new respect for that long list of fonts that pops up on your computer.
