The Apr/May issue of Canada’s History features a cover story on the 100th Anniversary of the Titanic’s tragic maiden voyage.
Naturally, Canada’s History tells the story from the perspective of the Canadian first-responders from the East Coast. The sky bar draws attention to a story that easily could have been the cover too…when Canada burned the White House.
Because there was no actual photograph of the point of impact, an illustration was chosen to do the job.
Publisher, Deborah Morrison says, “Although we knew that our Titanic feature was ideal for headline treatment, we had a number of other great stories that we wanted to draw attention to on the cover. We think we found a good balance relying on typography and a wider sky bar than usual to do the work!”
