It's just arrived from Japan(Mitsue...Thank you so much!)...IT'S MINE!


This is a long-waited reprint of the valuable collection of materials left by Saul Bass (1920-1996), the leading designer of the 20th century America. The essence of Saul Bass including his representative CI's, graphical works, and movie titles, are collected into one book.
Saul Bass's creative work had gone beyond the borders of graphic design. Bass is one of the first designers to expand his activities into the fields of images and animation. Bass created many masterpieces of movie posters. He is also well-known for bringing a completely new style to the title designs of movies, which until then were merely lists of names of the directors and actors. Bass's designs for movies such as "West Side Story," "Psycho," "Vertigo," "Bonjour Tristesse," "The Man with the Gold Arm," and "North by Northwest" are, today, still full of refreshing surprises.
