Tom Hopman

Fabulous large spiral bound in linnen hrdcover folio produced by innovative Dutch printing company Smeets and published by Weert, Holland in 1955. This amazing book, with text in both English and Dutch, is a lavishly illustrated history of Smeets Drukkerijen N.V. from it's beginnings in 1830 to 1955.

This beautifully produced book contains wonderful full colour examples of the company's lithographs, die cuts, fold outs etc. including some amazing and iconic advertising images.
In good, clean vintage condition. This has clearly been a much treasured possession. 

Some wear to the cover and some age discolouration to the edges of some of the internal pages and some small marks- but overall still in great condition with Illustrations that remain crisp with vivid colours
Measures 42cm x 32cm
A gorgeous vintage book that would make an amazing gift for anyone interested in the history and development of advertising, print media and printing
A rare Mid Century treasure!
