Panorama. Year 10, complete (Issues 1–12). Prague: Družstevní práce, 1932. Twelve issues, illustrated photomontage wrappers as issued. Very good condition. Complete tenth annual run of the influential Czech cultural magazine Panorama, produced during the mature phase of interwar functionalism. Designed by Ladislav Sutnar. Many advertising photos by Josef Sudek. Profusely illustrated with photography reproducing modern architecture, exhibition installations, industrial design, and domestic interiors, alongside commercial graphics closely tied to the activities of Družstevní práce and Krásná jizba. Period advertisements—particularly for textiles, porcelain services, and cooperative products—form an integral component of the magazine’s visual program, exemplifying the seamless merger of avant-garde aesthetics with progressive retail culture.
