New on Design Reviewed: 56 printed inserts from Typographische Jahrbücher, a German printing trade journal, all from 1906.
I’ve been collecting issues for several years and now have more than sixty. What first drew me to them were the samples tipped in between the pages: letterheads, menus, price lists, business cards, theatre tickets, advertisements and specimens from the type foundries and ink makers of the day.
Selected from issues 3, 6, 10, 11 and 12, scanned, cropped and translated from my own copies. designreviewed.com/typograph…

I have a soft spot for printed ephemera like this.
Bold geometry, playful symmetry, wonderful colour combinations and characterful typography. A little graphic-design jackpot.
