The isotypes are Arntz's, I need to rewrite the intro…

Really? I am pretty sure they are Neurath's. I recognize quite at least a few of them. But maybe I mis-remember how they collaborated.

IIRC from reading a book i bought about Arntz .... Otto Neurath was the theorist and Austrian social scientist behind the Isotype system, and hired Arntz onto his team, once he had secured funds from Vienna's new social democratic government. (don't take this for fact, it's just what i think i remember)

didn't see this, hence the response five years late, but yes they are by Arntz. A load of his isotypes have been compiled into this excellent book
