Periodic Table of Chippies
Open, New York, New York, 1997
Description
Chippies by Wassco is a new dingbat font designed by illustrator Chip Wass and distributed by T-26. The Periodic Table of Chippies (Wassco Wal-Chart CBW-01, Revised 9/97) raises public awareness about Chippies, while providing vital information to Chippies users. The chart shows where each symbol can be found on the keyboard, as well as categorizing the symbols into extremely helpful categories such as “plants,” “people (and animals acting like people),” and “Polynesian Interlude.” There are 108 Chippies in all—at last count, there were 105 elements in the periodic table. This was just too good to pass up. Plus, printed on funky textured paper, it looks good on any designer’s office wall.
