Art Director Herbert Bayer commissioned major artists and designers to illustrate selected ideas of the greatest philosophers, writers, scientists, and cultural, religious, and political figures of history. For example, René Magritte illustrates Milton on the power of truth, Ben Shahn illustrates Locke on the purpose of government, Paul Rand illustrates Herodotus on freedom of discussion, Bayer illustrates Wittgenstein on the limits of language, and Saul Bass illustrates John Stuart Mill on the pursuit of truth In 1976, to celebrate America s bicentennial and the company s 50th anniversary, the CCA under the editorship of John Massey brought all of these ads together in this major publication, placing each one opposite a short biography of the featured artist and thinker. the book has introductions by Herbert Bayer and Mortimer Adler, among others. This is an invaluable document of an entire era in modern graphic design. Sold as is. Smoke Free
