Penguin by Design 1935-2005
 

Penguin by Design 1935 - 2005 by Phil Baines

Description: Penguin books have alway been known for their design style; some are timeless, but others evoke their era so clearly that book-lovers seek out vintage copies of their favourites. Phil Baines has compiled a unique survey of the publisher's design history, including hundreds of examples and details of the different designs including original artwork - Jan Tschichold's hand-inked tests for the classic orange and white covers are here, and the double-page spread of all the different Penguin, Pelican and Puffin logos made us grin...  This is a captivating book for anyone who loves having those many shades of orange on their shelves.

Details: Paperback, 256 pages. Measures 21.4 x 18.2cm.

Free UK delivery if you spend over £30.
