Living & Loving After Divorce by Catherine Napolitane and Victoria Pellegrino
“The divorced woman’s step-by-step guide to the good life” was first published by Rawson Associates in 1977. This is Bantam’s paperback edition that followed a year later. The typeface used for it is ITC Bookman, the second Bookman credited to Ed Benguiat, after Benguiat Bookman.
Announced in late 1975 in U&lc, vol. 2, No. 4, ITC Bookman spans four weights in roman and italic. The title is set in caps from the Bold weight, with one of the alternate ampersands, several swash forms, and some modifications: the nested LI pair was made from parts of existing glyphs, the top of the second G is retracted to make space for the ampersand, and the swash forms for V and R lost the ball terminal on the top left to enable tight letterspacing.
Glyph sets for the eight core styles of ITC Bookman, as show inn U&lc, vol. 2, No. 4. ITC’s digital version includes most of the original alternates.
