Onward, Men, Onward! Author: An article from the newspaper Titanic Illustrator/Artist: Heinz Becker Printer: Heinz Becker Binder: Heinz Becker Contact: heinz.becker@mannheim.de Edition of 60 copies in portfolio; special edition of 20 copies bound using soccer boot studs from the German National League. Printed on Samtoffset paper on a Heidelberg letterpress and a Korrex proof press. Produced in response to the 1991 German soccer championship win by the First Soccer Club Kaiserslautern. The typographic texts and figures of Heinz Becker reflect the championship year as he personally experienced it, deriving from remarks overheard in the stadium at Betzenberg and in pubs. The HandsatzAtelier was founded by Heinz Becker in 1986 in a former henhouse, as reflected in the printer's mark. The tiny studio, a one-man operation, is known for its typographic design elements. | ||
