GRAPHIK: WERBUNG + FORMGEBUNG
ADVERTISING AND INDUSTRIAL DESIGN
September 1955

Dr. A. Wannamacher (editor): GRAPHIK: WERBUNG + FORMGEBUNG [ADVERTISING AND INDUSTRIAL DESIGN]. A Review of Advertising for Commerce and Industry. Stuttgart: Verlag Maiwald, September 1955. Text in German, with English article summaries and cutlines. A very good original magazine: mild wear to spine and cover rubbing. Interior unmarked and very clean. Scarce.

8.25 x 11.75 perfect-bound magazine with 60 pages of editiorial and advertising content spotlighting the German Advertising and Industrial Design industries, circa 1955. An excellent snapshot of the postwar recovery and development of the German Design Aesthetic. First-class design and production (as to be expected for an industry magazine) with spot-color and tipped-in samples throughout.

This magazine celebrates all the best of modern German industrial design. Includes many examples of objects designed for the burgeoning postwar middle class.

  • The abstract photo in publicity by Dr. Herbert Franke
  • The situation of air traffic publicity by Anna Falkner and Rolf Kassel
  • helmut Lortz
