The turn-of-the-century Arts and Crafts movement revitalized many art-craft domains, including of course typography. One sidelight to the typographic art, but one in which many printers specialized, was the typographical ornament -- long a tradition among the very earliest printers, once again brought to the avant garde of design.The best American and European printers offered whole catalogs of original ornament in the Art Nouveau manner -- today they survive only in the archives of printers and historians of type. Here, from the archives of a contemporary typesetter and printing historian, is a selection of authentic Art Nouveau typographic ornament, culled out of late 19th and early 20th century specimen catalogs. Over 800 ornaments of all types include the patented Art Nouveau florals and flowing botanic wonders, both realistic and abstract. Women draped in pagan robes form borders and head and tailpieces. Animals abound: fish, elephants, turtles, birds, and creatures of myth and fancy. Innumerable spots, shapes, symbols, emblems, wreaths, scrolls, cherubs, and gargoyles show in clear black and white how they will look decorating menus, posters, handbills, ads, books, any functional or artistic project needing a flavor of Art Nouveau. Printers will be pleased to complement their Auriol, Baldur, Cordova, and Metropolitan, or other Art Nouveau-style typefaces with these unusual, long-forgotten ornaments. Mirror images given for many of the designs increase their utility. All images are from original sources, all copyright-free.

Very generous cut & really well made.
Size: Large, Color: White, Size: Large, Color: White
All cotton, 100%. Really well made. Great stitching and excellent weight. Very generous sizing. Lots of online clothing runs small, so I ordered a large and it is much too big across the chest and in armhole size. Should have ordered a medium. Will reorder. But this price was so good that I will not return the large. Will donate them to my local food & clothing pantry. I think they will be great for warm weather, but also for layering in these cold months.

one fits, other too big
Size: X-Large, Color: Navy/Sage Green
The good: made with a nice fabric, a good weight and soft. Color for both shirts is what I expected. I wish I could keep just one shirt. The navy blue tank top fit perfect and was comfortable. Green, same size as the blue one, was uncomfortably big. Arm holes 2 whole inches larger than the blue top. This type of inconsistent sizing is frustrating.

Good quality, not sure on fit
Size: X-Large, Color: Black/Mariner Stripe
I looked at the general comment on this top and it stated frequently returned due to loose fit. My measurements are close to size xl so I figured if they run large/loose then they would fit me fine. My bust is 46 1/2" and I probably should have gone xxl. The tops are snug across my breast and I will have to be adjusting so it does not pull a gap at the side of the arm pit area. However the top is not too snug, also not loose throughout the rest of the body so don't know how I would feel about a size larger. The quality is nice, medium weight cotton. No see through and no falling in creases. I hope washing these in cold and line drying will keep them from shrinking. I will keep these because I do like the quality and length but have not decided if I will order more or not.

Weirdest armhole proportions I've seen
Size: X-Large, Color: Navy/Sage Green, Size: X-Large, Color: Navy/Sage Green
There are a few nice things about these tanks -- I like the colors, there's a little extra length in the back, and the fabric is a thick quality fabric. I appreciate the fact they're 100% cotton and was looking forward to wearing these.
Overall, the tanks fit as I would expect for the size. But what in the world is up with the dimensions for the arm holes? There is a significant amount of extra fabric that bunches up and looks awful (see photos) I've never had this happen on a tank top before, even one that's a size up. It's really strange and I'm disappointed that I can't keep these because of it.
