Una visita a CINZANO
EDEL, Nico. Una visita a Cinzano. 44 pp. Illustrated throughout. Folio, bound in original illustrated wrappers in a new blue cloth folding box. [Milano, Alfieri & Lacroix], n.d. [1934 or 1936].
A spectacular and rare piece of Italian book design under fascism, but without the usual heavy hand of Mussolini, presumably because it was done as an advertisement. The overall layout is imaginative and makes extensive use of photomontage. The overall edffect is reminiscent of the publications issued by Maison Nicolas, the French purveyor of wines.
