Customer Reviews

Must have for all graphic designers

This is an amazing book. It is around 475 pages and around 97% of it is all large images with the best poster from this era, where you can see the biggest graphic design movements that happened in the 20th century. It also includes images all of all important fonts created with information about them. I never write reviews but this is an amazing source of inspiration that makes you think why aren't more things being done like in the old days, simple, direct, and understandable. Over all great book.
