c.1950s-c.1980s
James Teague studied industrial design at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago during the 1930s. In 1950, Teague and two colleagues bought the Chicago firm of Barnes & Reinecke’s company’s design interests and formed their independent partnership, Painter/Teague/Petertil, Industrial Designers. Teague practiced product and graphic design independently in Chicago after 1960. This collection contains a scrapbook of Teague’s product and graphic designs and a small grouping of professional papers and photographs.
