Ralf Herrmann Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 It’s a lot of typefaces! What do you want to do with them? Can you maybe narrow it down to your favorite ones? Finding full specimens isn’t easy and scanning all of them takes a lot of time. I certainly have access to samples of some of these typefaces, but the full alphabets are usually not shown in the main specimen books of the type foundries. Link to comment
Member Ann… Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 Finding these fonts is my dream.THIS IS MY PASSION !! Link to comment
Member Kev… Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 As Ralf said, very few specimen catalogs of that era showed the full glyph set. Fontsinuse.com is a good resource; it lists similar typefaces and specimen and/or purchase links (if available) in columns to the right of the typeface name and description. Here are pages for some of your list, but none appear to exist in digital form: https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/45314/wallenstein https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/45315/wittelsbach https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/44643/radium https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/31835/othello-atf https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/32281/mercedes-antiqua https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/38691/international-numrich https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/42839/ruebezahl https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/32310/irene https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/42150/kuenstlerschrift https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/32062/columbus 1 Link to comment

Member Kev… Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Anna, you need to click on the links I posted, then on the links under the “info” column on the pages you land on, to see specimens of each typeface.... Link to comment
Member Ann… Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 thank you very much.I'm happy.It is beautiful Link to comment
Member Ann… Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 I want to ask. Do any of you have these titles of books ??? "Moderne Farbige Reklameschriften und Arrangements,author Hermann Apel Konstanz" , "Modeles de Lettres ď Art Nouveau,author Etienne Anatole Ducompex" , "Lettres et Enseignes Art Nouveau,author Etienne Mulier". I am looking for these books for a very long time. Link to comment
Member Geo… Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 "Lettres et Enseignes Art Nouveau" is available at abe.com for US$2,480.55. I suspect the other books are also rare and will be priced similarly. This particular book is also in at least one library, per worldcat.org: http://www.worldcat.org/title/lettres-et-enseignes-art-nouveau/oclc/469710684 Also I found by entering this book name on pinterest.com, there are scans of some or perhaps all of the pages showing alphabets.
