Update on the Type Specimen book

Well, I attempted a redo. I looked at misprintedtype.com as Gen suggested. Found some cool typefaces. I got a little discouraged when I read the e-mail saying

"i'm not looking to see a lot of funky fonts that can only be used once in a design career,"

which I completely agree, but then thought that "classic" fonts might not fit the ambience that "Taxi Driver" projects. So my idea is up in the air now. Perhaps I should rethink the text of my book.


Below is an idea I thought of for text type. Since I choose the text from the movie that was being narrated from his journal, I ripped pieces of paper, scanned them and placed the images behind some text type.
