Gee, How Pretty (Admiring the Lowercase g)

Friday October 30, 2009

Brian Hoff has gathered up a nice selection of examples of the lowercase g. Notice how the bulk of these are the double-storey g. When looking for interesting letterforms, the g, the Q,  the ampersand, and the a (like g, double-storey a's are more interesting) are some of the letters I tend to look at first. They are often the most interesting or unusual in an otherwise plain typeface. What letters/characters do you love?
