Visual Inspiration: So Much Pileup

Visual Inspiration: So Much Pileup

By Dan Gould on August 29, 2008

Mike Davis, a designer and DJ from Minneapolis has started a great new blog, that showcases graphic design and illustration from the 1960s through the early 80s. Lots of visual inspiration for designers and fans alike.

Mike’s motivation for creating a catalog of vintage design:

Any designer’s studio or home is filled with books, stickers, posters, postcards, and other pieces of history. I started this blog to share some of the work from my collection that’s inspired me as a designer, primarily from the late 1960s through the early 1980s. I’ll be posting logos, postage stamps, motion graphics, packaging and promotional design from the time I consider to be the golden era of graphic design, just before computers took over and anyone with a copy of Photoshop and 10 fonts started calling themselves designers.
