Book Fair

After three decades at the helm of P22 Type Foundry, Richard Kegler founded Dry Inc. in 2020 as a design and letterpress printing studio. Kegler is now parting with much of his extensive collection of typographic books. These materials were carefully amassed through decades of research for digital type revivals and typographic obsession. The Typographics Book Fair is one of the rare opportunities to explore and acquire these hard-to-find reference books, type specimens, and other alphabet-related ephemera. Featured titles include fine press publications by P22 and letterpress prints from Dry Inc.
