If you follow AisleOne — if you don’t, what are you waiting for? — the blog of Antonio Carusone, the aesthetic of the 2010 letterpress calendar he designed as self-promotion will come as no surprise. It has everything that you tend to find in the blog: Nicely spaced Helvetica, perfectly pleasant grids, and an infinitely enjoyable minimalism. His calendar comes in four languages — English, Italian, French and German — one more (Italian) than the famed Neue Grafik journal, which I don’t believe is just a coincidence. This is probably one calendar you don’t want to cross the days off with a red marker, especially all that lovely blind-letterpressed type.
I doubt there are many left, but if you have $50 to spend, one of the fifty copies can be yours.
