NxtUp...Rare Books

Illustrator Syd Mead

A post at boingboing-dot-com posted an image from Syd Mead. That triggered the memory that I have the rare Syd Mead book shown. I love books. Being a highly trained industrial designer, Syd Mead makes sure that all his blueprints are working drawings. This technical conviction and brilliant finish gives steel, glass and chrome a sense of purpose and reality, in images from inner-city transportation systems to megastructures in outer space?" The site bookpalace-dot-com listed the book for sale at one time. Sentinel is almost an encyclopedia of Syd Mead's work and I would never sell it.

graphic with black, white, blue and orange ink.
