These beautifully designed cards constitute an exclusive Christmas range inspired by the scintillating treasures to be found in our collections. They are designed by the talented David Pearson who searched through our library stacks, cocooning himself for a few days before emerging with polychromatic wings of festive inspiration. The designs are inspired by printers’ ornaments and found words from our specimens books, and by our beautiful wood type archives.

All proceeds go towards caring for our unique library collections.

Items will be dispatched on 1/12/2022. Includes Envelopes.
