Catalogue for an exhibition of work by by artists and cartoonists that opened at the Partisan coffee house, Carlisle Street, Soho, in February 1959. The typography and the graphic elements were devised, made and printed letterpress by Desmond Jeffery.

Jeffery’s modern layout uses Standard (Akzidenz-Grotesk’s English name) and Doric Italic (Stephenson Blake’s version of Fette Kursiv-Grotesk).
