Tom Davie – Typographic Goods.

Artist, design educator and award-winning graphic designer Tom Davie has recently expanded his line of exquisite and cleverly conceptual typographic goods to include not only art prints but also note cards and matted print sets. As ′tis the giving season, these would make spot on gifts for both typography and linguistic geeks—plus lovers of photography, design and elegant photo illustration.
