In 1994, Paula Scher approached Ambassador Arts in New York with a ambitious silk-screen project. She would approach 12 prominent international graphic designers to submit designs for the alphabet. Upon completion, each of the 12 designers would receive a complete signed set. Also, a signed set would be exhibited at the 1994 Aspen Design Conference.

Boxed, unsigned and signed sets are now available for sale. Each print is identified by date, designer and paper specification in the lower right hand corner.
