Here’s another fun booklet by Tru-Cold exclusive with Montgomery Ward. It’s an owner’s manual in two colors with nice use of white space. Don’t know why but that shape on the back (also on the front) gives my a sort of “Herman Miller Logo” feel. Doesn’t look like it but perhaps the curves give it this modern feel. Anyhow, great booklet. Enjoy!

Here’s a fun booklet titled “Easy-to-make Gifts…for the small budget” to get the Holiday spirit going. Nice little illustrations in two colors. As always looks better in person but thought I’d share with all of you. Click on images to enlarge.

Another quick snap from my cell. I really like how they treated type back in the days, specially hand made textures and patterns. Here’s a good example from an old record cover that didn’t get to come with me.
