Book Cover Design
The cover features a prominent image of Harry Colebourn, the soldier, with Winnipeg the bear. Including a historical photograph evokes the time period. Choosing sepia tones is reminiscent of early 20th-century photography, to convey the historical context of the story but also to reflect the yellow from the well known Winnie-the-Pooh character. The typography chosen is an elegant script font reflecting the handwriting from the original postcards written along with a serif typeface to anchor the historical period.
