Biebl, Konstantin

Prague. Odeon. 1928
Sold
The cover design, a functionalist typographical composition, is printed in orange and blue on yellow stock. Together with Biebl's 'Zlom', this book is an outstanding example of Teige's concept of constructivist typography, in the colophon rightfully described as 'typographical montage'.
pp. 66. 8vo. (194 x 136 mm). With 5 full page typographical compositions, including the title page, and 6 smaller functionalist typographical compositions by Teige, printed in black and pink on off-white stock. Later red morocco-backed cloth, original front wrapper designed by Teige, bound in at rear.
