The Marber Grid, rendered in cotton thread and map pins on a canvas board. A tribute to Romek's very clever system that brought unity to so many Penguin and Pelican covers through the 60s and 70s.
The grid is re-created, by hand, at actual size, as the great designer intended it, i.e. Penguin and Pelican paperback size and fits nicely into a deep 30 x 40cm frame, with a mount (as shown).
Made to order, if you'd like one please email me and allow three weeks for your 'Homage to Romek' to be made. I'll send you a PayPal invoice when it's ready for dispatch.
