Ampersand ID Chart By Douglas Wilson

The Ampersand Identification Chart, a wonderful new limited edition letterpress print from Douglas Wilson.

Based on the Snellen eye chart, this three colour print has been designed to keep your typographic eye keen on the details of everyone's favorite conjunction. A corruption of the words 'and per se and,' ampersands are often a way that the type designer can show a little bit of flair and style in their design.

Hand letterpressed on bright white French 100lb. cover-weight "Recycled White" Construction paper. Each print comes with an identification key that details the names and weights of all 61 ampersands. You can see this key by scrolling to the second image above.
