6. Who is Grain Edit?

Grain edit is focused on classic design work from the 1950s-1970s and contemporary designers that draw inspiration from that time period.Site content includes interviews, articles, designers’ libraries as well as examples of rare design annuals, type specimens, Ephemera, posters and vintage kids books from our bookshelves.
Grain edit is based in Oakland, California and is operated by a guy who works way too many hours and loves orange juice.
Found some material that you think grain edit readers would like to see?
Send us your post ideas. We would love to hear from you.
Enjoy the blog!
---- Dave

9. Charley Harper...


a master of Mid-Century Modernism has a book coming out. Amid at Cartoon Brew says,
"...Ammo Books is getting ready to release what could become one of the must-have books of recent times: a humongous monograph on mid-century illustration legend Charley Harper. The project was initiated by fashion designer Todd Oldham who discovered Harper’s work in 2001 and has been collaborating with Harper since then to put together this book... As far as I know, Harper never worked in animation, but his work has inspired countless animation artists from 1950s-era designer Cliff Roberts to Samurai Jack background painter Scott Wills. Animator Nate Pacheco was even trying to translate Harper’s designer into Flash animation last year."
