Patterned Papers Hans Schmoller, Penguin Books & The Curwen Press A selection of the Penguin Music Scores I’ve finally unearthed from boxes.Schmoller joined Penguin from the Curwen Press and unsurprisingly settled on using some of the Curwen patterns for the new series of music scores. What is less known is that he commissioned a series of new patterned papers from the likes of Elizabeth Friedlander, Stephen Russ, Sarah Nechamkin and others. Along with Tanya Schmoller they were the leading collectors of early patterned papers, traveling the world in search of unusual patterned papers amassing a wonderful collection, now at Manchester Met. #hansschmoller #tanyaschmoller #penguinmusicscores #penguinpiets #curwenpress #patternedpaper #surfacedesign @penguinukbooks @penguincollsoc https://www.instagram.com/p/BqHQbF_Aaee/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19j7khcg2qv9a

Stephen Russ Penguin Poetry A pair of Stephen Russ covers for the Penguin Poets series. These little gems of mid-century design and pattern are just another excuse to collect Penguin Books. Commissioned in the early 60s by Hans Schmoller who, with his wife Tanya, assembled one of the finest collections of patterned paper, now held by the V&A. #stephenruss #penguinpoets #tanyaschmoller #hansschmoller #pattern #surfacepattern @penguinartgroup @penguinukbooks @penguincollsoc
