The Brothers Grimm

Pentagram Design, New York, New York, 1997

Description

For this latest volume in a series of limited editions for friends of Heritage Press, Paula Scher selected the darkest fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm and designed the book with unease in mind. “I wanted a scary children’s book, with the bloodiest stories, the scariest pictures, and big, nasty type. I was tired of nice, sweet children’s books.”
