Notes
A book by the Italian Communist Party (PCI) published on the occasion of a national seminar. The cover shows a simple diagram that effectively communicates the growth of the Communist party through a white line cutting a red square.

On the contrary, typography is quite confused. The name of the author is set in Helvetica Regular, the main title is set in Helvetica Compressed, while bottom text is set in Permanent, a today out-of-market typeface designed by Karlgeorg Hoefer in 1962 for Ludwig & Mayer and released in Italy by Simoncini.
