Vintage Issues of Graphis Magazine

Graphis presents and promotes the best-submitted work in graphic design, advertising, photography, poster design, branding, typeface design, logo design and illustration.

Founded in 1944 by Walter Herdeg and Dr. Walter Amstutz in Zurich, Switzerland, Graphis magazine was launched with its inaugural issue in September/October 1944. The company was later acquired by B. Martin Pedersen in 1986, who subsequently relocated its headquarters to New York City. Under his leadership, the company redefined its Annuals and expanded its portfolio to include new books such as New Talent (featuring student work), Typography, Branding, Logo & Letterhead, and more.
