New Posters on Blanka’s Flickr

The stuff that gets added to Blank’s Flickr page always leaves me amazed. I have no idea where they get all this vintage work from. They’ve recently updated their page with a ton of posters by Hans Neuburg, Herbert W. Kapitzki, Armin Hofmann and Josef Müller-Brockmann, many of them I’ve never seen before.        

Wim Crouwel Archive

This is one of those online gems that only come around once a year.

This Dutch site contains an archive of over 500 original designs by Wim Crouwel, most of which I’ve never seen before and that I think are some of his best. Pure brilliance. What’s even better is that there’s a sharp, hi-res version of each. Picking one out of the bunch to display here was a really tough decision.

You will get lost in this for hours, I guarantee it. If the link doesn’t work just search for Wim Crouwel.

If anyone can give me more info on the site and the collection, I’d be very grateful.        

Mash Creative 2010 Calendar

Last week I received this gorgeous Limited Edition A1 calendar designed by Mash Creative. The posters are printed 2 colour litho on 170gsm cyclus offset with a 60% cyan shiner to achieve an extra rich black. Each poster
is hand numbered and signed by the designer. Only 100 were printed and you can purchase one exclusively from Counter Objects.        

Dan Reisinger

Dan Reisinger is an Israeli graphic designer who’s work includes posters, calendars, logos, corporate and environmental day. He’s probably most known for his work for EL AL Airlines, which includes a beautiful series of destination posters that were designed from 1968-72.

I love his style and his work is probably the only example I’ve ever seen of good design that uses Hebrew letters.

Reisinger also designed this lovely perpetual calendar for MoMA in 1987.
