Don’t judge a book by its cover. While it may look pretty bleak from a distance, this mid-1950’s edition of Modern Publicity contains some great mid-century design references, which as most of you know was a golden era of sorts for the development of 20th century design. Modern Publicity is an annual survey of the best graphic designs in international advertising and communications. The illustrations in this book were selected from over 7000 entries submitted by designers all over the world. The book contains separate sections on poster design, press advertising, direct mail, trademarks and house-styles, letterheads, packaging, TV and film advertising, new typefaces, and book jackets. Illustrations in b/w and color.
$55.00, phone orders available. Call the shop at (323) 651-0131.
