A must have for graphic designers interested in magazine design,

This review is from: The Last Magazine (Paperback)
Wonderfully designed book with hundreds of images (but little text) of great magazine design. Works are from all over the world and all kinds of subjects. A great coffee table book for magazine lovers and an excellent resource for graphic designers.

This review is from: The Last Magazine (Paperback)
Don't buy this book if you are looking for fresh ideas and inspirations. All presented in the book magazines was printed 10 years ago!
