Vista Sans Wood Type Project Kickstarter v.2

Four Fifths, second print by David Wolske for the Vista Sans Wood Type ProjectTricia Treacy and Ashley John Pigford have revamped and relaunched their Kickstarter project to fund touch: the vista sans wood type project book. This time around the rewards for pledging include limited edition prints made especially for this campaign.
