Book Description

May 1, 2007 8496540162 978-8496540163
From around the world, this book houses a collection of over 2,500 various ticket stubs dating from the past two decades. The opus of Tanja Backe, these tickets come from every imaginable source: airplane, train, ferry, bus, metro, cloakroom and parking tickets, bank and taxi receipts, inspection labels, admission tickets for museums, theatres, cinemas, circuses, operas, zoos, concerts, ballets, even reptile shows. The collection sampling of all kinds of occasions and cultural events. Non-chronological and non-linear, the book can be navigated according to individual preference and logic. The collection reprints the tickets at true size, one-to-one, organized according to color and hue. Backe guides us through the variety of typefaces, languages, formats, styles, backgrounds, identities, illustrations, and other graphic elements contained in this sweeping collection. Fascinatingly small, the ticket is a unique and intriguing format, one that demands efficiency, utility, and that can become a thing of high design and ingenuity.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"I'm really excited to get my hands on a copy of One to One, a new book by Tanja Backe that may well be the ticket. Literally actually the book is an international collection of tickets (over 1,600 of them) from the past 20 or so years. It covers all the bases planes, trains, ferries, buses, museums, theaters, circuses, operas, zoos, concerts, ballets... It is organized by color, and displays the tickets in their actual sizes, guiding the reader through the unique identity of each, transforming these everyday objects into products of high design and ingenuity. The book itself is small; I think it would make a perfect travel companion." --JoshSpear.com
