Detroit Promotional Poster
I have been lounging around since June 20 when I burned my foot; followed by cancer surgery on my nose June 21. I have to keep my foot elevated. It is difficult to do a lot when the foot has to be elevated. Therefore, I'm sifting through stuff to try and better utilize my book shelves. I found a photo of this poster. WOW did it bring back memories. I used to really have a lot of fun making stuff like this. Glad I saved a BW photo. Of course I had to photograph it with a digital to get it on the blog. Some of the details got lost, but I am pleased to see it again.
I can't remember the original size. However it must have been at least poster board. I actually think it was larger. I do remember that it was done with different colors. Just a walk down memory lane.
I'm curious about how this came about. Are/were you a Detroiter? I'm trying to remember the poster but I was a mom with two little ones in 1983 and I was consumed by Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers then. It's a wonderful tribute to this still struggling city. Thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteAs a Michiganian...Love it!!! I want to send my bro to see it but he would 'lift' it and put it on his facebook page!
ReplyDeleteLooks good, even now. Wish I had taken pictures of some of my gradeschool posters. Take care of yourself. Try to be patient. I just went through 2 hand surgeries.
ReplyDeleteI lived in a subburb of Detroit for many years. I attending school and think this was one of the design projects.
ReplyDeleteI do not care if someone posts this as long as they give me credit. Posting without giving credit is NOT acceptable.
