Saul Bass



Today I'll jump to the late 50's early 60's with the iconic design work of Saul Bass. Many of us know his movie posters such as - Anatomy of a Murder, Vertigo, West Side Story and The Man With The Golden Arm. He was born in New York and lived from 1920 - 1996. He spent most of his career working in Hollywood but also did well known logo work for companies such as AT&T. Influence from his graphic style can be seen today, for example the title sequence for the 2002 Speilberg film Catch Me If You Can. Above images from designmueseum.org and allposters.com
