In typography, a dingbat is a small figure or design that replaces letters of the alphabet, creating a parallel alphabet or even, if you’re so inclined, a secret code. This remarkable collection of 140 dingbats in all their permutations results in 9000 graphics, an overflowing cornucopia of cool stuff to decorate just about anything. Take dozens of pointing fingers, suitcases, itsy ballerinas in distinct poses, even a collection of the rings left underneath wine glasses. Humor, design skill and immense inventiveness create a book – and, as always, CD-ROMS for Mac and Windows – that will enliven the work of any typographer or designer.
