Gilbert Frey: MOBILIER SUISSE CREATION DE 1927-1984/SCHWEIZER MOBELDESIGN 1927-1984. Zurich: Musee des Arts Decoratifs de la Ville de Lausanne, 1986. First edition. Text in French and German. A very good softcover book with printed stiff wrappers: creasing on the cover. The former owner must have prized this book: his bookplate is on the inside front cover and his stamps are inside the front and back covers and on the text blockšs bottom edge. Otherwise, interior unmarked and very clean. Out-of-print. 8.75 x 8 scarce softcover book with 183 pages and 243 b/w illustrations. Additional text by Claude Lichtenstein and Arthur Ruegg. Catalog published in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name: Musee des arts decoratifs de la Villa de Lausanne, April 15-May 21, 1986; Museum fur Gestaltung Zurich, Kunstgewerbemuseum, June 4-July 20, 1986; Gewerbemuseum Basel, Museum fur Gestaltung, Sept 23-Nov 9, 1986. Includes biographies of the designers, a bibliography, and an index of manufacturers. This book celebrates Swiss design not only in its contents, but in its organization and form.
