Lucky for me, ( and you if you love typography ) my sister happens to be quite the book enthusiast, her collection of books is a wonderful source for finding inspiring examples of typography. The books in these examples can actually be purchased from her blog Random & Unusual Books.Today's inspiring examples are of the "western" variety. Lately it seems I am particularly fond of this look. As a matter of fact, I am almost reluctant in sharing these with you, I treasure them that much, I want to horde them away for myself. So I do hope you enjoy them and find them inspiring.
