Completely handcrafted utilizing woodblock alphabets and type from an extensive personal collection, Drew’s ABCs poster wrap is the accompanying component to Drew’s ABCs book. The poster wrap serves as both a wrap for the book and a collectible takeaway. Posters for each letter of the alphabet were printed using two Vandercook Universal III presses. This poster was designed in collaboration with BRED Nation.
The visual language on this poster derives from the book’s design aesthetic. From the 26 letters, “D” was chosen as a personal preference and because of the letterform’s features. Each poster displays the quote: “Don’t mind the imperfections, it’s what makes us unique” in Akzidenz-Grotesk. The quote refers to the concept which is, “to expose the richness of diversity within typography and celebrate its differences.”
Drew’s ABCs has been recognized for the following awards:
• 2018 Graphic Design of the Year Award at the 11th and 12th Annual IDA Awards
• Merit Award Winner in the Editorial Category by HOW 2019 International Design
• Award of Excellence in the 2019 Communication Arts Typographical Annual 9 (Jan/Feb 2019 issue)
