Spine with five raised bands and six gilt decorated compartments. Gilt ruling marbled endpapers and dentelles. Initialed by the author Paul Baerwald on the fourth endpaper. A completely singular publication and binding with no other recorded copies of the text itself presented to Paul Baerwald from the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee or JDC. In 1932 Baerwald became the Chairman of the JDC and would serve as such through the rise of the Nazi Regime the escape expulsion and attempted extermination of the Jewish people in Europe and the entirety of World War II. He supervised all of the JDC's philanthropic and rescue work throughout this period by sending funds to Europe and elsewhere even heroically risking the organization itself by sending borrowed monies from New York banking institutions. In 1938 he became a member of President Roosevelt's Advisory Committee on Political Refugees to expand the work of the JDC to the largest possible scale. The true humanitarian impact of Baerwald's efforts are inestimable. Most profoundly throughout the 1930s and leading up to the U.S. entry into WWII Baerwald delivered public and private orations informing the American public for the first time as to the persecution of the Jewish people in Europe while passionately advocating for any type of assistance. These speeches make up the text of the present volume and represent the earliest pleas for United States intervention and assistance on behalf of the Jewish people. In 1945 Baerwald was named Honorary Chairman of the JDC where he then instituted policies which aided over half a million refugees to reach Israel. FINE in Near Fine felt lined clamshell case. The book itself is flawless. The slipcase with marginal shelf rubbing of the edges otherwise remains Fine. As pictured. The American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee hardcover

His Univers typeface and the machine-readable font OCR-B which was adopted as an ISO standard are milestones as is his type for the Paris airports which set new standards for signage types and evolved into the Frutiger typeface. With his corporate types he helped to define the public profiles of companies such as the Japanese Shiseido line of cosmetics. In all he created some fifty types including Ondine Méridien Avenir and Vectora. Based on conversations with Frutiger himself and on extensive research in France England Germany and Switzerland this publication provides a highly detailed and accurate account of the type designer s artistic development. For the first time all of his types from the design phase to the marketing stage are illustrated and analyzed with reference to the technology and related types. Hitherto unpublished types that were never realized and more than one hundred logos complete the picture. . 2008. 3764385812 . Birkhäuser Architecture hardcover

1933In folio (49,2×34,5 cm); (66) pp. Brossura editoriale con tavola incisa da Armando Baldinelli al piatto anteriore entro cornice azzurra e la xilografia "Foot-Ball" di Ugo Lucerni al piatto posteriore. Leggere tracce di polvere ai piatti e una macchiolina di acqua al margine alto del piatto anteriore. All'interno in buone condizioni di conservazione. Rarissima opera, due soli esemplari censiti in ICCU, in tiratura di soli 60 esemplari numerati, questa è la copia numero 8, di questa importante opera xilografica. Dedica autografa del celebre artista e studioso dell'arte grafica, fra gli innovatori dell'arte grafica italiana della prima metà del XX° secolo, Cesare Ratta al grande caricaturista Umberto Tirelli. L'opera venne curata dallo stesso Ratta che formava, nella città natale di Bologna, nuove generazioni di incisori. Ratta fu il fondatore della prima cooperativa di muta assistenza dei tipografi ed una delle personalità di punta del movimento tipografico ed incisorio italiano della sua epoca. Personaggio dalle spiccate doti diplomatico fu in contatto con tutti i più grandi artisti della stampa italiana dei suoi tempi che contribuirono a più riprese ad illustrare le sue pubblicazioni. La sezione bolognese della Federazione italiana dei lavoratori del libro lo designa a presiedere la commissione che sta progettando di realizzare una scuola professionale per la città, come già hanno fatto Milano e Torino. È l'inizio di un'avventura difficile ma appassionante, che coinvolge il comune, alcuni industriali del settore e persino un bibliotecario esperto come Albano Sorbelli. Ratta si dà da fare come non mai per reperire fondi e convincere gli scettici, fino a che, dopo cinque anni, nel 1913, la Scuola finalmente apre.Gli insegnanti non hanno titoli accademici, sono semplicemente operai esperti del lavoro, che mettono a disposizione le conoscenze pratiche acquisite negli anni. Ben presto, oltre ai giovani da avviare alla professione, la scuola accoglie, di sera, gli adulti che già lavorano, perché, come scrive Ratta, occorre "integrare e perfezionare l'ordinaria istruzione pratica che l'operaio riceve in officina, insegnandogli quei processi razionali, quelle formule, quelle finezze di lavoro, che nell'affrettata produzione industriale egli non ha agio di imparare" (da Re-R). Nella sua scuola si formarono numerosi artisti. Il raro volume qui presentato si avvale delle incisioni di alcuni dei maestri dell'arte incisoria italiana come Cisari, Bayeli, Remo Branca, Cervellati, Aroldi, Baldinelli, Servolini ed altri. Il volume si avvale di due interessanti scritti dedicati all'arte tipografica ed ai tipografi, scritti da Sam Benelli "Il Canto dei Tipografi" e da Rapisardi "La Stampa". Opera assai rara ed fra le più rare fra gli albi editi da Ratta. Rif. Bibl.: IT\ICCU\UBO\1616059.
