The Typografische Monatsblätter is one of the most important journals to successfully disseminate the phenomenon of Swiss typography to an international audience. With more than 70 years in existence, the journal witnessed significant moments in the history of typography and graphic design. This book examines the years 1960-90, that correspond to a period of transition in which many factors such as technology, socio-political contexts and aesthetic ideologies profoundly affected and transformed the fields of typography and graphic design. The book includes works from designers including Emil Ruder, Helmut Schmid, Wolfgang Weingart, Hans-Rudolf Lutz, and Jost Hochuli.
