Mozart ; Beethoven. Hardmondsworth: Penguin, 1949 (Penguin scores)
“No previous design had existed for the Music Scores series, and Tschichold was able to tackle the new design assignment with a fresh and inventive approach; he began by introducing a white title plate positioned just slightly above center on the cover. The white window shade included the featured musicians last name, for example, Beethoven, set in all uppercase monotype Caslon Old Face, followed by the title of the musical composition, offset in an enchanting monotype italic Caslon Old Face (...) The decorative and exquisite repeated Curwen Press patterned paper in a sophisticated monochromatic earthtone color palette was designed by the German designer Elizabeth Friedlander (1903-84).”
