The association 'Friends of the Palatina Library and the Bodoni Museum' have created the initiative 'Adopt a Bodoni alphabet' with which the intend to restore the full set of more than 600 alphabeths, their punches and matrices.
The Museum needs to raise funds to be able to restore the lead characters, which also need to be conserved in an appropriate polycarbonated box.
From just under € 800 you can become affiliate of one of your alphabets of choice. Or maybe you would like to adopt an entire Bodoni family?
Your affiliated alphabet(s) will carry your name on its box!
