Chris was commissioned by Lucy and Wendy of Eleos Collective C.I.C, as part of their Meet Us At Alberts project, to “create a design inspired by Albert Gait’s long-standing contract to produce the Continental and Overseas timetables for Thomas Cook – the go-to resource for international rail travellers for nearly 150 years! Gait’s had been printing Cook’s vouchers and hotel coupons since the 1860s.”
Feedback:
“We are thrilled with his striking design and the attention to typography detail, and who doesn’t love an image of the Dock Tower?”
The poster will be presented as part of the project at Grimsby Minster on Wednesday 8th, Thursday 9th, Friday 10th and Saturday 11th May 2024 from 10am – 3pm.
You will also have the opportunity to purchase an exclusive Risograph print of the red design (while stocks last). All monies from the purchase of prints will go back into developing their Grimsby print project further.
