The can design...

Heritage cans...

 

For the little film below, from the original photo by Alan Clarke, I wanted a classic design, traditional font, hinting of the boat sailing along, and turquoise...

Firstly, I am extremely sad to hear of the passing of my dear friend Ben Abbott, he was a boss who sacked me from a graphic design company, and we became like brothers for that!

"Ben, you took my sketches and images and made the can design as it is, and it is now iconic, thank you... RIP brother x and Oh Dot, I will never live down that night, and I will always tell the story too!"

The * where it says "*hand, sail, and oar" was for this reason, incase I started canning other species...

The image on the can is of me on my little ship, the Alf Smythers, which you can also see in this film:
