Erik Nitsche

I was on a train this weekend and I saw an old building with the words "GENERAL DYNAMICS" emblazoned on the side. It reminded me about these posters I had seen for the company with beautiful scientific illustrations. After a quick Google search, I came across Erik Nitsche (1908-1998), a designer for (among other clients), General Dynamics. He has a loyal fan base, who have compiled an image library on Flickr. Also, our own Steven Heller has written an article about "The Reluctant Modernist", featured in Print magazine and also on Typotheque. His obituary, also written by Steve, can be found in the New York Times (sign-up may be necessary).
