“A hint from the Basle business man and patron Paul Sacher resulted in Tschichold being given a post in the pharmaceutical firm of F. Hoffman-La Roche & Co. AG, where from 1955 to 1967 he designed not only many lesser items but a large number of prestige booklets, which are fine examples of typography, but which were given only to doctors and have remained largely unknown”. (Reminiscor i ‘Jan Tschichold: praeceptor typographiae’).
