194X
A fun project for University of Minnesota Press from Daniel Ochsner. This was a 3 color job and the direction was to celebrate the period aesthetic (I was provided with several vintage ads I had to use). “194X” referred to the undetermined date of the war’s end. The book is about the rise of planning in American architectural culture during WW II.

Wow, I can't believe (well, sadly, I can...) that they went with the last one. The first is stunning, bold, captures the feel of the era while still looking really contemporary.
Ah, no accounting for taste...
