Ex Libris — covers by Hanspeter Wyss

From 1961 into the early 1980s the Swiss illustrator Hanspeter Wyss drew dust jackets for Ex Libris, the Zurich book club, and for Benziger: flat bright shapes, a crowd of houses, a skyline of crystals, a harlequin under an umbrella. Ex Libris kept no numbered series, so these follow Sammlung Keller's dates roughly, with the undated ones last. Some carry only type and an abstract figure, such as a target, a colour wheel or a grid.

58 books, each with the cover Open Library holds for its printing in the series.
