Description
Joining this year's fourth-centenary celebrations, this flipbook is a delightful catalogue of Shakespeare's plays. It is also the only unpublished work by one of Britain's greatest graphic designers, Abram Games, and a little landmark in the history of design.
As the reader flicks through the book, the titles of the plays build up to form an image of the great playwright, who cheekily winks at us from the page. The 37 plays appear in the order of the First Folio of 1623, ending with Pericles, Prince of Tyre, added to the collection in the Third Folio of 1664. The date of each work is given on its first appearance.
