Quarto. (33)ff., printed on coated stock. Each sheet contains roughly twenty stylized monograms, which utilize a varying color palette—some monochromatic and others with contrasting backgrounds. The monograms are arranged alphabetically and indexed on the lower right margin. The work, which one imagines was likely a reference for sign letterers or embroiderers, features a striking Art Deco aesthetic. Faint toning to margins of title leaf, otherwise the contents are bright and clean, housed in publisher's portfolio of paper-backed boards with title on upper cover. Some minor wear to spine and rubbing to corners, otherwise a very good example of an unusual design piece that has no institutional holdings in the U.S.
