(Some of my great volunteers and I are still adding to the sample images, and might be able to use your help, if you have some of the fonts that are missing illustrations. Please send me an e-mail if you would like to contribute samples.) |

This Guide is currently being expanded to include newer fonts, as Sans Serif fonts have been one of the most pop****r areas for new fonts. |

Good places to learn more about type and type design -- something we see and use every day, but rarely appreciate, in my opinion. |

Now you can also choose border designs for the Medium and larger labels. |

"Just Your Type" |

Besides, how often do you send mail to yourself? |

Now there are also border designs for the medium and larger labels, to personalize your labels even further. |

(By the way, I'd like to see your local printer make "business cards" that look like the one above, with multiple type styles, curved text AND multiple colors and drop shadows on the clip art. I'll bet none of his "Selection of Styles" is like it at all!) |

(Only a true font fanatic would collect this many brand-name typefaces. You can see samples of thousands of them on this web site, since many of the samples in the Guides are from my collection, and I add more examples all the time.) |

(not just a one-line alphabet sample) |

(I like giving credit where it's due.) See the new Trading Card format for type samples that I'm trying out too. |
| 25 |
(I like showing off my collection whenever I can, and continuing to add new examples here gives me a chance to show a small sample of my total collection. There's still a good chance you'll see something you like here, in one or more of the styles. You can always ask to see more.) |

- If you ever see a typeface anywhere that you'd like to know the name of, just send me something that shows it, or the URL of a web site that uses it, and I'll try to identify it for you and tell you where you can buy the typeface. (It's one of my hobbies; I call it "font-spotting".) |
| 27 |
"If it needs type, I can do it!" |
| 28 |
(and only YOU know what that is!). I have affiliations with several national print wholesalers and label suppliers who can provide a wide range of stock choices and the latest in print technology to produce your printed products and labels exactly to my designs. |

(You'll love it! ) There's even a new smaller size calendar design for you to use on a desk or shelf. |

I am also working on an online Perpetual Calendar that you can use to show you any month from 1600 through 2199. Of course it will also be a typeface sampler. |

And when you order something from me, just forget the phrase "please allow 4 to 6 weeks for delivery", because you'll never hear it from me. I'll do my best to get your order to you in less than a week. That's my commitment. |
