I've updated my Pelican/Penguin Fickr sets with recent finds. Some good. Some, to be honest, just OK. I nearly didn't bother with this one, from 1964, not long before the designer helped form Unimark. Not a terrible cover, but not a stand-out one either. Which is surprising considering who it's by. Can't say I've ever heard Vignelli's name mentioned in connection with Pelican, wonder if there of others by him.

Hmm, perhaps not all designers are a dab hand at all mediums?
