©1962 / Cover design: Robert Flynn. The inscription on the inside cover indicates that my father acquired this book in 1969. Robert Flynn designed many record covers for Impulse Records between 1960 and 1969. This blog post has some background on Flynn and some examples of his work.

Back from NYC

My friend Josh with my prints at One Every Day at the EFA Project Space

Monkey Skeleton

I was in New York from Saturday to Tuesday. I went down for the opening of One Every Day. The show was really cool, and the curators and organizers couldn't have been nicer. It's up until December 19th. This was my last trip out of town for a while. I have been in four shows in six weeks, in three different cities, it's been fun but now I need to stay home, get Frazer/Montague Design going and prepare for the next round of shows.

Lately I have been using my iPhone a lot more, it is a great way to take visual notes. I have a Flickr set from this Fall's travels here.

Daily Book Graphics #248 / We Live in Canada

Canada has no greater friend than me (I can literally see Canada from my front porch), but this 1985 book does the citizens of that country no favors. The book features Canadians talking about their lives in their own words. The photography is amazingly bad and the pull quotes are boring and stupid.

"One Every Day" Opens Tomorrow Night – Be There!

I'm in a group show called One Every Day at the Elizabeth Foundation Project space curated by Printeresting.org. The show organized around the theme of printed ephemera. Full curatorial statement here. I think it will be quite good.
