To celebrate its 100th anniversary, Smead Manufacturing Company wanted a souvenir to give to its employees, customers and suppliers. This coffee-table book documenting their rich history was created to fill that need. Together with a historical writer, I researched the company, interviewed top executives, gathered old documents and samples to create this illustrated history. A large project taking several months to complete, the book required meticulous attention to detail to maintain historical accuracy.

The 48 page book was wrapped in a custom-manufactured replica of Smead’s original product from 1906; the bandless filing envelope.
