Industrial Design Magazine (1955–63)
I can’t ID the broad italic sans used for this issue. Akzidenz Grotesk and Standard are close, but the beardless ‘G’ is a puzzler. It rings of Venus and Ideal Grotesk, but no match.
This collection of Industrial Design showcases wonderful cover art direction from a variety of designers, following the high standard set by Alvin Lustig in 1954, and three typefaces very typical of mid-century modern design in America: Clarendon (for the logo and issue numbers), Century Expanded, and News Gothic.
