From the Statue of Liberty to Times Square, Harlem to Coney Island, this iconic art book covers 100 years of how New York City was sold to the world via graphic design. The book’s historic posters feature New York City’s iconic skyline, unique architecture, and the warmth and charms of its individual neighborhoods.
