Author: BEALL, Lester (1903-69)
Title: Signed First Day Cover
Description: Pioneering, prolific and legendary self-taught American graphic designer whose work spans the commercial, editorial corporate identity and advertising art worlds and who incorporated such disparate elements as bold new typefaces, Dada and 19th century American wood types; among his designs is the U.S. 10-cent stamp honoring Andrew Jackson; one authority calls Beall "the conscience of American design," while another maintains he "almost single-handedly launching the Modern movement in American design." Signed First Day Cover, 6½" X 3½", cancelled in Hermitage, Tennessee on 1967 March 15 and with "First Day of Issue" boldly stamped. Single 10-cent "Andrew Jackson" stamp at upper right. Fine. At lower left, in black ballpoint, Beall signs large and bold. With small portion of original transmittal envelope. .
