Nice article about Authentic Ink on Myfonts.de, written by Jan Fromm. It is in german though...
Authentic Ink shown in the Book Fraktur mon Amour. Fraktur mon Amour reproduces 300 variations of Blackletter fonts ranging from historical fonts to contemporary reinventions in a sensuous beautifully crafted hot-pink prayer book-style catalog that is destined to become a fetish object for designers and type enthusiasts. Each Blackletter font is presented on a full page along with its complete alphabet date of origin the name of its designer and its original foundry. On the facing page is a composition created from that font that explores the subversive beauty of this unique typeface. In addition 137 of these fonts--including four created exclusively for this book--are collected on an enclosed CD (Mac and PC) for free privateand restricted commercial use. Fraktur Mon Amour is the winner of several awards including the Type Directors Club of New York's 2007 Award for Typographic Excellence.
