A meticulously curated visual archive dedicated exclusively to the graphic culture of jazz.
Rather than focusing on record sleeves or album artwork, Vintage Jazz Poster Scrap foregrounds original vintage posters, flyers, booklets, and magazines, positioning printed ephemera as a primary medium through which jazz culture was communicated and experienced. Spanning clubs, concerts, festivals, and independent promotions, this collection of 454 images drawn from the collection of Tokyo-based producer Yasushi Ide reveals the diversity of design approaches—from bold typographic experiments to expressive illustration—reflecting the improvisational spirit and global reach of jazz itself. Conceived as both an art book and a historical archive, this publication will appeal to jazz enthusiasts, designers, collectors, and anyone interested in the intersection of music and visual expression.
Edited by Yasushi and Chika Minami, afterword by Takamori Kadoi and Shuya Okino. Published by Grand Gallery in 2026. Paperback, measures 8.3 x 5.8 inches, 376 pages. ISBN 9784991160523
