Enjoy and share: Bembo’s Zoo — “an abecedary of animals made entirely from Bembo letterforms and punctuation marks — nothing else” — created by deVicq de Cumptich.

What a fun flash version of the book - I am familiar with the book of Bembo's Zoo because my husband also does typeform illustration (ahem, husband's first book out next month, called Aesop in Goudy, and what a thrill to see your best-beloved on Amazon /plug). If you have access to a die-cut machine, this can easily be turned into a really extraordinary activity with kids -

Wow, what a site (and sight, too.) I was disappointed to discover that the book is o.p.; used copies from Amazon are over $30. Too bad--I figure the art teacher at our school would just love the concept. The images on the website are cool, but disappear so fast I can't quite see all the letters.
