“Purdue Honors Famous Lafayette Designer” (Bruce Rogers)

$50.00

It’s May 8, 1970 and the Journal and Courier of Lafayette, Indiana, has got a hot tip. Bruce Rogers has been dead for thirteen years, but his centennial is six days away. They dedicate six of the ugliest columns we’ve ever seen to the story of one of America’s most storied book designers and his time at Purdue (and Boston and Cambridge). If you’ve not read anything about BR in twenty or so years, there’ll be some interesting details in here to help refresh your memory and interest.
