Art of the Title Sequence is a fantastic site dedicated entirely to title sequences. In addition to having a great title archive, there is also quite a bit of content on the concepts and processes behind some of the most successful movie titles ever.

Advertising in America, 1850-1920

Duke University libraries has compiled a fantastic digital archive of Mid-Nineteenth and Early-Twentieth Century advertising, ephemera, and photography. The site isn't much to look at, but it's easy to navigate and the content is wonderful.

Avant Garde, Issue 2

I was lucky enough to find and purchase seven of the fourteen issues of the influential art and design publication Avant Garde.
It may take awhile, but I plan to document each of the issues, starting with number two. Issue two was published in March of 1968. It was edited by Ralph Ginzburg and art directed by the legendary Herb Lubalin. The issue features a screen-printed cover, and a series of twelve Marilyn Monroe-based serigraph (screen) prints by Bert Stern, with various contributing illustrators throughout.

onlab

onlab, a Berlin-based graphic design studio that produces a combination of client and self-initiated projects. I quite like the Quarry Workers publication; it has an interesting format and is a great solution for 1-color printing.
