Slang poster

[Jonathan Lighter]

They need a sequel that says "Slang II."  That would add the numeric system..

I've just received a poster -- 'FontFont Map 2006' -- from FontShop
International (I'm a typographer).

The poster features the word 'slang' set in a multitude of typefaces.

Why 'slang'? Well, the explanation is:

"The word 'Slang' represents the main components of the latin alphabet --
uppercase, lowercase, ascender, descender, rounds, and straights."
