TASCHEN's 25th anniversary - Special edition!
East German Design - 1949–1989
This eccentric collection of goods features East German consumer products daringly acquired before the wall was broken down. From foodstuffs to household appliances, East German packaging and product design—sober yet slightly kitsch—reveals a little-known side of German popular history.
