‘George Giusti (1908-1990) was born in Milan, Italy. He studied at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan and did graphic design there before deciding to move to Zürich, Switzerland, where he opened a design studio, which he operated for seven years. While on a visit to the United States in 1938, Giusti was induced to stay by the several excellent commissions that were offered to him, including the opportunity to collaborate with Herbert Matter on the design of the Swiss pavilion at the 1939 New York World’s Fair. Giusti is well known in Europe and America for his architecture and sculpture, as well as his graphics. Over the years, Giusti garnered more than ten gold and silver medals and eighty other awards and citations.’ https://poulwebb.blogspot.com/2021/01/fortune-magazine-part-3.html 21.2.22 image from https://poulwebb.blogspot.com/2021/01/fortune-magazine-part-4.html 24.2.22

Synthetic Sheet
Made to last as part of a labelling of garden material so left outside in the elements for long periods. Needing to be visible as the day it was put on the product at manufacturing this synthtic material does the trick. Printed single sided on a lightweight synthetic.
