These beautifully designed cards are inspired by the scintillating treasures to be found in our collections.

Created by world-renowned designer, David Pearson, they are inspired by printers’ ornaments and found words from our specimens books, and by our beautiful wood type archives. Each pack contains 8 note cards and envelopes and are blank on the inside.

All proceeds go towards caring for our unique library collections.
