Collected Graphic Design :: Montague Projects

This is one of the most impressive collections of vintage graphic design examples I've ever come across.  From posters to album covers, field guides to grammar books, Julian Montague of Montague Projects has amassed 1000s of images on his Flickr stream.  I've included a few of my favorite below, but it barely scratches the surface of this incredible collection and resource.  So.  Definitely check out Julian's Flickr stream for more visual delights!

1000 More Greetings :: Aesthetic Movement

Yes, 1000 more greetings... "more" as in there is an entire other book filled with 1000 other greetings.  That's 2000 greetings, people.  Couple that with the Geometric book from Kapitza and - bam - you're set for life.

About: This compilation highlights a diverse cross section of current trends in graphic design.  In this age of eblasts, evites, and ecards, an actual physical greeting is becoming increasingly rare and ever more special.  Everything from mass-produced to limited-edition pieces, hand-drawn to computer-generated art, and conventional to renegade printing methods are all represented side-by-side in this collection.

1000 More Greetings by Aesthetic Movement: $40

P.S.  Check out the entire 1000 series while you're at it.  "1000 Artist Journal Pages"... "1000 Type Treatments"... "1000 Bags, Tags, & Labels"... you get the idea.

Geometric Book :: Kapitza

WOW.  Kapitza really knocked it out of the park with this one!  Their Geometric Book houses a collection of 264 colorful and monochrome pattern illustrations as well as a CD of 100 pattern fonts.  What does that mean?  You can create endless patterns and designs simply by typing. TYPING.  I seriously need this book.

Check out a flip-through video here.

And, if you're up for an adventure and are not prone to seizures, check out their animated patterns here.

Geometric Book by Kapitza: $95
