Mid-Century Modern Flashcards

Know a Bellini from a Bertoia? How about a Poul Henningsen from a Poul Kjaerholm? If your MCM knowledge needs a little brush up or your kid is a budding Corbusier, perhaps these flashcards are in order.

mcm cards 2.jpg Created by Etsy shop owner Belles Lettres, each card features the photo and name of an influential MCM designer on one side, and an iconic piece for which they are known on the other. We recommend inviting over any design buff friends for the ultimate throw down. Available in Beginner and Intermediate. We'll start with an easy one - anyone know the designer for the chair above?

C2, i think the real horror here is not just the price but that she's charging $25 for something made with other people's copyrighted images.

I'd rather buy a book on MCM than flashcards for $25.

did you see the french/english flash cards? they have all original pix and look gorgeous. i see what you mean about copyright but i think it's a great idea.
