Best Finish

Posted by Scott On February - 13 - 2019

The Apr/May 2019 issue of Canadian Woodworking is set to hit newsstands on March 18th, 2019.

Art Director Jonathan Cresswell-Jones has created another cover sure to sell well.

Nice close up shot.  Good use of left hand real estate for key sell lines.  Strong skybar treatment.  The use of a number to quantify value.  A starburst call out.  And the blessed word “Best”, all combine to create a winning cover.

Canadian Woodworking continues to be on a roll:

  • In 2016, sales up 49%…5 of 6 issues posted gains
  • In 2017, sales up 21%…5 of 6 issues posted gains
  • In 2018, sales up 39%…5 of 6 issues posted gains
