This booklet is for an exhibition of work by German-born graphic designer Frederick Henri Kay (FHK) Henrion. Henrion designed a number of posters for the British Ministry of Information and the US Office of War Information during World War Two, including Dig For Victory, Aid the Wounded, and Grow More Food. After the war he founded a design consultancy that worked with various companies, include KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, who still use a modified version of the logo Henrion designed. The exhibition was held at the Flaxman Gallery, Stoke on Trent between the 28th of November and the 14th of December 1989. The booklet includes a brief timeline of Henrion's life and awards and then a catalogue of the various posters and drawings that were displayed at the exhibition, along with illustrations of a select number of the displays. The booklet is in good condition, with only some minor signs of wear on the external cover. Internally the pages are clean, the binding strong and the illustrations
