'Kwadraat-Bladen' was the original idea of graphic designer Pieter Brattinga (1931–2004).
He set out to prove that his family’s printing house, De Jong & Co, was the best in the Netherlands by publishing a magazine that would surprise its readers with its radical content, unusual format, and cutting-edge production techniques.
None of these publications were for sale; they were distributed to friends and associates by De Jong as self-promotions.
34 'Kwadraat-Bladen' were published between 1955 and 1974.
No delivery to the United States due to the new legislation.
