A few months ago I did a reprise of some beautiful Graphis covers. Like Graphis, the social design media of its day, the second incarnation of Gebrauchsgraphik (the postwar years in Western Germany) was also a wellspring of inspiring covers. There are a few websites devoted to archiving them (like this one and this of the 20s and 30s iteration too), and what a pleasure it is to savor the artifacts. I’ve had a complete run for some time, and these are among my favorites (from top to bottom by Tovaglia, Müller-Blase, Erik Nitsche, Anon). But there are many others too.
