Flyers that get posted on a bulletin board have to be simple, act as a poster and still carry the basic information when the application form is torn off. The design of this may look stark but post it on a typical bulletin board, especially in a college environment where you have big time competition for getting attention and the starkness works for it against all of the visual dazzle already on the board.
One of my all-time favorite cartoons was one of Sad Sack peering through layers of posted material on a military display board until he had come to the board itself where a very small posted piece of paper said "Now hear this. All troops required on the green at 6:00 am. by order of General G. Washington."

I like a lot of the LNER's publicity as it was always a little more adventurous than the other 'Big Four" railway companies (although the Southern smartened its act up in time!). It is also great to see that a lot of the LNER's booklets. etc., featured artwork by Freda Lingstrom - who in the 1920s and '30s was one of a small number of female illustrators and designers who made a mark in a male dominated world. This is typical of Lingstrom's work - blocky colour and for this series of booklets a strong historical flavour selling the castles, abbeys and historic places served on the eastern side of the UK by the railway.
Classic example of a New Graphic Design layout using only two colors, (a two color run for a printing press is much cheaper than full color) but was an exciting visual utilizing space, tension, asymmetrical layout, and san serif letterform .

Guggenhiem Museum. The US starts to emulate the new, contemporary work of Europe. This scanned from a collection of paper bags that I picked up in my travels. I do not think the san-serif gg's are well designed. They catch my eye like a thorny vine.
For a graphic design class.
Thats actualy a drawing of my hands, so in a way its a self portrait too. ha!
When the New Graphic Design issue no.1 first came to our office in 1960, my husband studied it thoroughly to find the underlying grid that the whole publication was based on. (I still have the tissue paper system that he worked out.) He was fascinated with it since the grid is essential for organization of masses of information.
There is usually a grid automatically worked out in design work for letterpress (it's the nature of the process) but with the advent of offset printing, anything goes any old place you want and especially now with designing on computer.

"Establishing the most appropriate grid for a book on the Indy 500, based on 4 columns and 4 rows. This grid offers the possibility of having horizontal pictures based on the 2-to-3 ratio proportion (typical of slides) from small modules to a half page to a full spread".
Quote from Vignelli.
