World Geographic Atlas

Published by the Container Corporation of America (CCA) in 1953 and never reprinted, this is a rare and impressive atlas, designed and assembled by Herbert Bayer over a period of four years. CCA published it in 1953 to mark their 25th anniversary. Bayer travelled the world seeking maps and geographic data, resulting in a reworking of the classic atlas with German Bauhaus influence and precision. 368 pages, well-illustrated with color maps, renderings, spot drawings, photography plus montage. Extensive coverage of United States and World.
