Bemerkung:

"Just five years ago the first Alphabet Thesaurus was published with the hope that its usefulness would justify a second edtion at a later date. Although it was an audacious experiment, in applying thesaurus principles to the graphic problem of alphabet comparison and selection, the venturesome undertaking proved to be highly successful. Now, in one concise volume, we have combined the best of the new designs gathered during the past five years with the most important material in the first thesaurus. The entire contents are integrated, interpreted, and presented in a balanced relationship. An accelerated format with the convenience of multiple indexes makes sought-after alphabets instantly accessible" (Foreword). - Gutes, sauberes Exemplar.
