I have just added four more magazines to my online collection of Ringier pattern magazines - the years 1957 to 1962 are now almost complete

All information I have on these patterns in general can also be viewed on the Vintage Patterns Wikia: http://vintagepatterns.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Ringier . I keep adding what I find out!
