Thursday's performance at the Drake Hotel in Toronto went well, there were approximately 60 people for my piece, and they seemed to be into it. Jordan Tannahill, my director/collaborator, wisely booked the Cowgirl Choir to follow me, having 10 attractive women perform certainly helped to fill the place up. I really enjoyed me week in Toronto, it was great to make new friends and hang out on a new scene. Hopefully I will be doing more up there soon.

©1959 / Design: Rudolph de Harak / I've had a bit of luck finding De Harak covers this week so I am posting three in a row. I have also started a Rudolph de Harak Flickr group. I have a number of requests out to other Flickr members to add their scans of de Harak's work, if you have anything to contribute, please do.

Giusti was previously featured in DBG #319. I think there is a good concept in this cover but it feels undermined by the size of the subtitle.

The website Frazer/Montague Design is now officially up. F/M is the name of my new partnership with fellow designer Betsy Frazer. From now on all of my commercial graphic design work will be conducted under the F/M banner. We have both had freelance practices for a while, so for now the site content is a compilation of our past work as individuals. Thanks to 12 Grain Studio for putting the site together.
