The Label Made Me Buy It: The Best-Dressed Boxes, Bottles and Cans From Aunt Jemima to Zonkers

Rating:
Summary: Completely entertaining and informative
Review: Ralph and Terry Kovel created a wonderful coffee table book that outlines some of the best ICONS in commercial and advertising art. This book has deep appeal to not only designers but anyone who has a love for retro design and just plain cool art direction. American trends and packaging and even culture spring out of the depiction of many of these gorgeous four color labels. I enjoyed this book and even my teenage kids found it a really neat thing to look at.

For history and antique buffs there is also enough information to make them happy as well.
