Finally I finished the layout for the hardback edition of Return of the Ripper and ordered the proof copy. It's not just a scale-down of the softback, I laid the whole thing out afresh from scratch.

I highlight the main differences in this post:

I have been playing with #fonts for the front cover of Return of the Ripper, and I have found two that I really like.

The title text is set in GrandjeanPW. This one is inspired by the types of Philippe #Grandjean de Fouchy (1666–1714), a #French punchcutter and #type engraver.

The strapline is set in Dear Boss, a #typeface mimicing the handwriting in the "Dear Boss" letter received by #ScotlandYard in September 1888 and allegedly written by #JacktheRipper.
