We’re delighted to have Letterform Archive give us a private virtual tour of their space. They are a non-profit museum in San Francisco dedicated to collecting materials on the history of lettering, typography, printing, and graphic design.
About Letterform Archive
The Archive was founded by Rob Saunders, a collector of the letter arts for over 40 years, as a place to share his private collection with the public. We opened to visitors in February 2015 and now offer hands-on access to a curated collection of over 85,000 items related to lettering, typography, calligraphy, and graphic design, spanning thousands of years of history.
So far, the Archive has welcomed over 10,000 visitors from 30 countries, including students, practitioners, and letterform admirers from every creative background. Some come with specific research ideas in mind, while others are simply looking for inspiration. Invariably, thanks to the breadth and accessibility of the collection, they stumble on something unexpected. Serendipity is key to the Archive experience.
