"The poster is taken from the March 1939 cover of Direction magazine, an avant-garde publication that Rand began contributing to that year." It was through his covers for this avant-garde arts and culture journal, "that Rand was able to develop and solidify his modernist graphic aesthetic" (Cooperhewitt.org).
