Slipcase has surface scuffing from where price sticker was removed. . Laszlo Matulay was a prolific designer, illustrator, fine art painter and educator right up until his death in 1999 at age 86. Despite Matulay's wide ranging career and position as one of New York's most sought after illustrators in the mid-to late-20th century â" one of the most pivotal eras in graphic design history â" his name is relatively unknown today. Some Lehigh Valley residents might remember him, either as the man who became the first artistic director at Rodale Inc. in Emmaus, or the man who for many years did the set designs for the Hunterdon County Repertory theater company in New Jersey.
