- Upper pastedown trifle wrinkled. Boards trifle yellowed. A very good copy.
= The first book publication of the Gesellschafts- und Wirtschaftsmuseum at Vienna, headed by Dr. Otto Neurath, the great advocate of the importance of visual education. Attached to the museum as a freelancer since 1926, Arntz became Head of the Graphics Department in January 1929 and from then onwards Neurath and Arntz worked closely together in creating the ISOTYPE, the International System Of Typographic Education. This rare book is still a mixture of styles: partly pictorial statistics by Arntz, partly colourful figures by i.a. Meixner.
