The Frey Foundation Learning Commons is GVSU's health sciences library, serving the Kirkhof College of Nursing and College of Health Professions programs.
From the early 1870s to roughly 1930, many publishers issued their commercial book covers with a remarkable variety of graphic designs and illustrations. This sixty-year period saw many artists and designers contributing to this art form. While some can be identified from their style or initials, others remain unknown.
