Dennis, My esp must have been activated. I was just searching around for Hans Hartmann and found this site. Back at Pratt as an undergrad, I brought a book into class one day and pointed out some of Hartmann’s work out to Charlie Goslin and found out that he was a huge admirer of the work too. When I graduated in ‘82 I made a trip to Europe and and specifically to Bern to look up Hartmann….gave him a call but he only spoke German…I didn’t so I hung up–but called back an hour later to see if anyone else might pick up the line. To my excitement, someone did–his wife, who spoke perfect English. She invited me to see his studio: a ground level extension to his house, lots of windows–work all around–a classic design studio. That afternoon got to show him slides of my student work, he had flat file drawers of posters and press sheets. He and his wife were extremely gracious to me. We met his daughter, and all went to the Bern design school for a visit, to the city museum, then out to dinner. I think I stayed in a youth hostel and headed out the next morning, but I still have the mementos of that visit….a poster (framed) and book (on my top shelf) that I tucked into my backpack. A genuine graphic design experience.

This is a beautiful page of Hans Hartman’s work. He was a true master of graphic design.

Yea, its really similar. It’s weird though, I can think of 2 or 3 other rooster designs that look just like this. If I can find them, I’ll post them.
