Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book assembles a compelling critique of US currency design by typographer and designer William Dwiggins. The author argues that, despite the value they represent, US bills are poorly designed, hindering their use and failing to convey a sense of national significance. Dwiggins compares paper currency unfavorably to trading stamps and argues that a more aesthetically pleasing and practical design is possible. This book includes Dwiggins' own design concepts for a new currency for the fictional Republic of Antipodes, demonstrating how the principles of good design could elevate the status of paper money. Through its exploration of both the functional and symbolic aspects of currency, this book offers a unique perspective on the role of design in shaping our perception of value. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
