advertisement for BEAR FAMILY records

yes, sir - for BEAR FAMILY RECORDS - the no. 1 label for vintage music of all kinds. i grew up with it - always checking there mailorder catalogue and buying this and trying that, and when i started doing serious design i just thought - "boy, would be great to work with them someday." and here we are, finally (and 10 years later) - a marcel bontempi ad for bear family. no masterwork - but at least more sexy than lots of other record company advertisements. and besides that: sexy music needs sexy ads...(AND sexy covers - did i mention that before?) i wish everybody a merry x-mas and a happy new year!

ballroom goes BURLESQUE

my first "burlesque"-poster - i tried to give it the look of a 60s nude-magazin. it worked out OK, i guess - of course one can argue about the colors!
