About This Item
This Italian-Swiss designer, illustrator and sculptor co-designed the Swiss Pavilion at the 1939 New York World's Fair, but it's for major magazine front covers -- "Time," "Fortune," etc. -- that he's often remembered. Signed First Day Cover, 6½" X 3½", cancelled in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on 21 August 1971 and with "First Day of Issue" boldly stamped. Fine. No cachet at left; no distracting recipient's name/address. Preprinted red Giusti-designed "Bowling U.S. 8c" stamp at upper right; at lower left, Giusti signs large and bold in black fineline. Small portion of original transmittal envelope present. An uncommon autograph.
