<p class="p1">For the past three years, two volunteers at the Center for Book Arts have been working on a massive project. Matt Collins and Chuck Peters have been cataloging nearly 700 fonts to create a specimen book of the center's type collection. On top of that, Chuck is spearheading another project: creating a dichotomous key for identifying letterpress typefaces. Matt, Chuck, and the center's Executive Director, Corina Reynolds, tell us about these projects from start to finish. <span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span></p>
