One to One: That's a Lot of Tickets!

Posted on March 22, 2007 Under Books

I’m really excited to get my hands on a copy of One to One, a new book by Tanja Backe that may well be the ticket. Literally actually– the book is an international collection of tickets (over 1,600 of them) from the past 20 or so years. It covers all the bases– planes, trains, ferries, buses, museums, theaters, circuses, operas, zoos, concerts, ballets… It is organized by color, and displays the tickets in their actual sizes, guiding the reader through the unique identity of each, transforming these everyday objects into products of “high design and ingenuity.” The book itself is small; I think it would make a perfect travel companion. It’s available through Actar Publishing for $38 USD.
