Karl Gerstner: Typographisches Memorandum

This special issue of Typografische Monatsblätter features 35 pages dedicated to Karl Gerstner and marked the end of his work as a designer and typographer. He was dedicating himself to art. Gerstner wrote that whereas his seminal Compendium for Literates contained theory, the pages of the this memorandum showed those theories in practice. So, very special indeed. And it’s loaded with old graphic ads and a showing of typographic posters. From the library of Inge Druckrey.
