Typography School

Here’s something I found amusing and entertaining: an explanation of the ins, outs and benefits of old-school letterpress typography, done in a 1950’s black-and-white newsreel/documentary style: Typography School. The video features David Dabner, who teaches letterpress typography at the London College of Printing and thinks that computer-based typography has made students lazy and sloppy.
