Swiss Typewriter Letterheads

Inspired by Richard's post presenting the typewriter letterheads used at a recent typefest, I am happy to show you some Swiss 1930s letterheads. These are ready for download (follow the link by clicking on the pictures / alternative download from this page). Format is A4, but is should work just as well when printing them out on U.S. standard letter paper.
