Artifact Type: Softcover Book Title: Souvenir Collection of the Postage Stamps of Canada 1978
Year: 1978 Designer: Rolf Harder
Studio: Rolf Harder & Associates Client: Canada Post
Size: 290mm X 216mm Condition: Very Good. *Note small pen mark on back cover*
Each double sided page provides extensive information relating the stamp’s specifications, back-story and design. The pages are printed in black in only, with the mint never hinged stamps mounted in protective sleeves within the page — placing emphasis on their striking production in contrast to the stark, factual surrounding details.
The cover design employs a bilingual 2 column typographic grid (which remained consistent between 1977 and 1986) with a central illustration panel. In this area Rolf Harder creates a striking strip of four definitive like stamp designs, each printed in a single Pantone ink depicting the year 1978.
Notable stamp designs featured in 1978 were by Stuart Ash, Carl Brett, Theo Dimson, Jean Morin, Tom Bjarnason and Reinhard Derreth.

small or light.
HH

prominent.
