      Creative use of printing colours - Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black reminds me of the series of graphic designs by Bradbury Thompson, for Westvaco Papers (please see www.flickr.com/photos/grainspace/2241542624/)

      Thank you sujitjp, Bradbury Thompson was our idea of the highest standard in graphic design (known then as advertising art) when I first started working at the drawing board in 1958. He was truly our hero to be emulated if possible. Westvaco Papers was a must in every design office.

      I've been obsessed with this design since I saw it in MOMA's Helvetica exhibit earlier this year. Have you ever seen it for sale anywhere?

      Gary, I apologize for not answering sooner, but no, I have not. I wonder if any poster companies would have it? 1967 is a long time ago. Maybe Knoll would know.

      Massimo Vignelli used the image of an old woodcut tree in a poster designed at the beginning of the sixties, possibly for a conference of Architects in Milan.
      Can you plese tell me if is reproduced in the book From A to Z?

      I got to see this at the Helvetica show at MoMA in NYC...Just like GaryDehart says above, it was one of my favs there, too.
