A 42 Year Old Edward Koren Ad Booklet: “How To Approach A Wall”
Yesterday, visiting a friend, he handed me this 1983 twelve page illustrated ad booklet from his archives (thanks my friend, for the donation!).
Though the booklet’s been around forty-two years, it was brand new to me.The artist is the late very great Edward Koren. The client was Nielsen. The booklet measures 5″ x 5″.
Not at all surprising is how wonderfully friendly Mr. Koren’s art is. His style is timeless; these drawings could have been done yesterday. I’ll show you a few of the dozen pages.
