Following on from those illustrators, is a book which I have used for inspiration before. " Hand Job: A catologue of Type" is a collection of hand rendered type from a variety of typographers/illustrators. I have used this book as a reference in previous projects and think it has the best variety of illustrative type I can find.
I love this style of type, as I think each one is completly unique, and can't be re produced. I love the childish approach aswell that comes with it. The use of relief printing and bold colours give it a friendly feel and the colours can really help represent what the illustrator is trying to represent.
I've always been interested in hand rendered type and would love to introduce it into this project at some point.
Here are a few example pages from inside the book.
