Een Zwierige Eenvoud (An Elegant Simplicity: The Number Stamps of Jan van Krimpen)

Paul Hefting

Edité par Houtpers and Spectatorpers

How's this for elegant simplicity? Bram de Does's most coveted book, with stamps by Jan van Krimpen, is a sweet treasure printed from Romanée types (and includes a nice specimen of the 10-point printed straight from the metal). The book as issued contains tipped-in, used specimens of JvK's 1946 beauties. The essay gives the full story of Van Krimpen's design-but it's in Dutch, so unless you can read that language, this is just a pretty book. But wait! There's more! We'll include an unpublished English translation so you can know what the heck this is all about. Translated into English by a human, now this pretty book is a useful tool, too. Covetable and useful. What more can one ask for in a book? Fine, but there is some sort of spot on the jacket. Be sure to take a look a the pic above and note the "2" below the "1." We've put the entire book into one of our handmade mylar jackets to keep it safe and looking sharp. 454. N° de réf. du vendeur 49621757919472
