Dossier Jannon
Dossier Jannon is a collection of documents related to French printer and type designer Jean Jannon’s work. It includes five separate publications, including a type specimen and facsimile reproductions drawn from the collections of Bibliothèque Mazarine, Paris; Bibliothèque Nationale de France, Paris; Bibliothèque Municipale Louis Aragon, Amiens; and Biblioteca Produzione.
In a joint partnership with Klim Type Foundry, the set presents definitive research by historian Sébastien Morlighem on Jannon ("Rediscovering Jean Jannon," [Redécouvrir Jean Jannon]). The dossier also includes publications with high quality reproductions, to scale, of Jannon's original type specimens, and a specimen for Production Type's LVMH typeface.
