Suspects, Smokers, Soldiers, and Salesladies

Ivan Chermayeff's collages suggest personalities that grow out of envelopes and stamps, letterheads and labels, pebbles and Polaroids, all magically transformed into eyes, noses, mouths, ears and earrings, hats, and cigarettes. Some are sad, some angry, some comic, yet all are engaging and inventive. For anyone who likes to look beyond the obvious, this book is a source of endless amusement and inspiration.
