Type (Top) Trumps
I don’t think I really need to introduce the concept of Top Trumps… the popular pocket-money pastime for boys hit our playgrounds in 1977 and stuck around until the early nineties. They were then relaunched in 1999 and are still in the shops today – there’s even an iPhone app.
This pack, available from Magma, are for the typophile with an inner child. Compare typefaces on criteria such as year of release, cost, number of cuts, legibility and of course, the ‘special power’. They aren’t official Top Trumps, but who cares? Perfect for playtime at the agency.
