Heidelberg: Edition Tangente, 1968 – 1972
Edition Tangente was the name of the publishing house originally founded by Klaus Staeck before he changed the name to Edition Staeck in 1972. The company published works (usually in multiple forms) by most of the famous avant garden artists of the 60s and 70s and the publicity /subscription material produced by the press was usually detailed and illustrated throughout with detail of the editions. Here we offer a collection of XX different leaflets and posters and invitation cards published by Staeck in the period 1968 – 1972. All are VG+ unless otherwise indicated.WOHNBEDARF STOLL (1969)
