Since that time, Thailand has developed a rich library of graphic images using an alphabet unique to the language.\nA Century of Thai Graphic Design examines the many facets of Thai graphics, from early newspapers and funeral books, to political propaganda, film posters, childrens cartoon books, labels and advertisements for household products.\nWith the help of the foremost collectors in each particular field, Anake Nawigamune has assembled a collection of words and imagery which provides a visual history that will fascinate designers, historians and all those interested in Thai culture and society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44968122089525,"sku":"ByrdShop_9748225429","price":125.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9789748225425_b3157e3b-173d-44b2-a7f6-7552ce75c9dd.jpg?v=1781048096","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/a-century-of-thai-graphic-design-9789748225425","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
