Zelená kuchyně (“Green kitchen”) is about vegetables and edible plants and Zelení ježci (“Green hedgehogs”) about cacti, while Zelený domov (“Green home”) deals with houseplants and Klenoty přírody (“Jewels of nature”) with minerals.\n\nThe cover designs are by Milan Albich (1925–2000), a painter, illustrator, and graphic artist from Krupina, Slovakia. He rendered the titles in **ITC Serif Gothic**. in all-lowercase letters from the Black weight, likely using the Letraset adaptation for dry transfer lettering. Unlike the official digitization, this version includes the alternate glyphs, see for example the descending forms for **z** and **k** , the spurless **r** , and the tailed **t**.\n\nAlbich must have been fond of this typographic style: he also used it for a catalog of his own drawings and paintings in 1987.\n\n\n\n_**Source: www.etsy.com **craftytransfers (edited).
