The Feb/Mar 2018 issue of Canada’s History is set to hit newsstands on January 29th, 2018.
Art Director James Gillespie has created a compelling cover featuring an illustration of a Viking ship sailing boldly through an iceberg laden sea. This marks the 3rd time in 12 years that Canada’s History has featured Vikings as a cover story.
Rule #30: If it works, keep doing it
- In 2006, the Vikings cover was the best-seller, selling 3,650 copies, and beating the average of the other five issues that year by 96%. (The cover won Gold at the Canadian Newsstand Awards).
- In 2014, the Vikings cover sold 4,086 copies, beating the prior year’s issue in that slot by 88%. (The cover won Gold at the Canadian Newsstand Awards).
Look for another strong performance from this cover.
