Book Synopsis
What is a true 1950s look, as opposed to a 1930s or 1940s look? This book aims to address that question by thoroughly surveying the development of graphic design over the course of the 20th century. It includes timelines for each decade that highlight key moments, styles and movements.

Trade Review
'Offers a wealth of stunning imagery that proves, if anything, how brilliant original works that have often spawned some less brilliant imitators really are' - It's Nice That
