Signs & Symbols by Pepin Press
Where the constraints of time and space do not allow for the use of words, we use signs and symbols to convey meaning. Signs & Symbols, a collection of over 1,300 images, covers many of the important uses of this universal language, from the heraldry and property marks of the past to the very modern world of health, travel and safety (and, perhaps most importantly, the washing instructions in your clothing). The wide-ranging collection contains all the usual suspects, such as the arrow, the cross, the star and the crescent, but also lesser-known examples such as symbols devised by the Akan people from West Africa and a number of Japanese coats of arms.
Contains stunning images for use as a graphic resource, or inspiration. All the illustrations are stored in high-resolution format on the enclosed free CD-ROM and are ready to use for professional quality printed media and web page design. The pictures can also be used to produce postcards, or to decorate your letters, flyers, etc. They can be imported directly from the CD into most design, image-manipulation, illustration, word-processing and e-mail programs; no installation is required.
