[Herman Miller Furniture Company] George Nelson (introduction): THE HERMAN MILLER COLLECTION. FURNITURE DESIGNED BY GEORGE NELSON AND CHARLES EAMES, WITH OCCASIONAL PIECES BY ISAMU NOGUCHI, PETER HVIDT AND O.M. NEILSEN. Zeeland, MI: Herman Miller Furniture Co., 1952. First edition (Revised and expanded from 1948). A Very Good hardcover book bound in full black cloth with Herman Miller logo screenprinted and embossed in Red on front panel, with the original dust jacket designed by Irving Harper. The DJ has wear to both spine ends, a couple of small, missing chips and a few closed tears to the edges. Undeniably rare with the DJ. Good luck on finding another copy of this original edition with the Dust jacket.

8.75 x 11.25 hardcover book with 116 pages highlighting the 1952 Herman Miller Furniture Line, featuring the plywood chairs, tables and screens of Charles Eames, George Nelson's classics, along with pieces by Isamu Noguchi, Peter Hvidt and O. M. Neilson. This catalog has a wonderful spot-color section on the brand-new Eames Storage Units (ESU) as well as full dimensions and technical data for the molded plastic chairs we all know and love.

The Herman Miller furniture lines from 1948 and 1952 have been called the most influential groups of furniture ever manufactured. This original catalog shows these pieces in beautiful, sharp detail. No disrespect to the Acanthus reprint, but this catalog leaves the reprint in the dust-- from the halftone sharpness to the spot-color separations that Acanthus ignored. This is the real deal, and a rare opportunity to own this catalog in its original dust jacket.
