[8 Cummins Engine annual reports + 10 quarterly brochures by Paul Rand]
Here’s a nice little collection of annual and quarterly reports designed by Paul Rand for Cummins Engine Company. That must have been a good gig, designing these things all the times. We hope he made $1 zillion. Anyway. What we have here are nicely designed covers with very handsomely-set interiors with occasional pie charts, graphs, and tables about all sorts of info there’s no reason a normal person would care about. From the collection of Steven Heller, this pile consists of
