Another great find: the lovely Justin Thomas Kay went to the Herb Lubalin archives at Cooper Union and decided to share the photos on flickr. Follow the link here. Isn't that great? So exciting to see the sketches behind the great work. Another useful link here takes you to some photos of his posters. Makes me want to sit and draw type all day instead of worrying about my exam project...
The second-to-last and last ones intimidate me. It seems impossible to create flourishes with such grace as Lubalin did.
