Dealer Notes

A collection of lino-cut images by Bawden, of which he writes “I have always enjoyed cutting lino blocks ... It is, I think, very much a designer's medium ...”. As one of the twentieth century’s premier British book illustrators and graphic and commercial artists, he has designed images for everything from dust jackets to underground station tiles to the masthead for The Observer newspaper, including the PBFA logo.
