Synopsis: An early example of the illustrated brochure or catalog, featuring icon drawings of designs alongside model numbers, finish options and dimensions but without pricing. It was designed for showrooms and third-party official vendors as take away information of reference. The catalog is split roughly 50-50 between the designs of Charles Eames and George Nelson & Associates. Eames designs include the Compact Sofa, 650 Series, Lounge Chair & Ottoman, Aluminum Group, fiberglass and wire frame chairs. Printed with sepia on a bright yellow card, the design is eye catching and very easy to follow and read.
