Mid-Century Modern Design: A Complete Sourcebook

As a serious reference book on mid century design or an entertaining coffee table book this does the job nicely

La bibbia del design! Prezzo un pelo alto è tutto in inglese

This book has tons of photos and is great for identifying the names and designers of furniture pieces and styles you've probably seen but haven't known how to identify. A good reference. It has other stuff besides furniture, like textiles and classic houses and vases and radios, which was of secondary interest to me yet still interesting. It would be neat if they threw in a section on mid century modern clothing, if there is such a thing.

Should be a core part of your library if you are interested in MCM design and history
