Eine Stunde Druckgestaltung (Tschichold)

Whereas Tschichold’s seminal Die neue Typographie (1928) was largely an illustrated reader meant to introduce the ideas of the New Typography, this one is a heavily illustrated looker with short captions that together serve as visual demonstrations of the principles. And because one has to know suffering in order to know pleasure, Tschichold includes numerous examples of before-and-after settings. Also, it includes mailing addresses for a host of notable modernist designers. Use them to reach out to Herbert Bayer, El Lissitzky, Ladislav Sutnar, Piet Zwart, and others. Let us know if you get a reply! From the library of Inge Druckrey, this uncommon item is beautiful and useful—especially with your phone translating.
