In den WarenkorbZustand: Very Good. New Orleans: [ca. 1925]. Collection of fourteen (14) manuscript typeface and box designs (most ca. 31x21cm or the inverse). Occasional toning and a few small soil spots, else a Very Good or better collection. New Orleans student Laura Geiser'sportfolio of ten typographic designs and four decorative box design…s. Geiser, born in New Orleans in 1904, was the daughter of the Swiss-born designer and preservationist John Geiser (1869-1943), who founded his own firm in New Orleans in 1907, specializing in fresco, interior, and decorative work. Evidently design ran in the family, and his daughter's examples of applied typographyare quite nicely and imaginatively executed - the words "Willard Battery" feature a neat hatch-marked serifed type, while the words "House Wreckers" employs two different types, the word "House" itself in the shape of a house, the word "Wreckers" using a design whose uneven lines and sharp angles are reminiscent of an explosion. In contrast her box designs are much more feminine and colorful, employing pastel arts and crafts florals, Bohemian decorations,and romantic gilt designs.
