Private View of the 40th Anniversary exhibition

It was a really good night! So many people came from Industry as well as members of the TypoCircle.

Alan and John as highest ranking officers spoke the TypoCircle thanks to all those involved over the years. The list of past speakers alone on the wall took some reading.


 We also had some of the Founders of the Circle and many of the past Chairmen present. The work looked amazing in the frames and cabinets thanks to GF Smith; and Monotype for the white cabinets. It was so interesting to see a small range of ephemera that has been produced across the years. More people came in during the Exhibition to say they had work too, so that is something I will be following up.

Olaf Linberg, Robbie Sparks, and Steve Leggate were there at the beginning!
