Frank Sinatra: The Columbia Years Poster

Frank Sinatra: The Columbia Years Poster

Sony Music Creative Services, New York, New York, 1996

Description

The record company had just released Frank Sinatra’s entire Columbia recordings in two new boxed sets released by Legacy. The goal was to create a poster that appealed to Frank Sinatra enthusiasts. I chose to make a poster that reflected the time of the recordings, which spanned from 1943 to 1952. I wanted the poster to look like it was from 1952 and these recordings were just released. I love older design styles because older designs were bold, graphic, and uncluttered. Later, I found out that this poster was sold to a collector as being original from the 1950s. I guess this confirms that I accomplished my goal.
