Once More A Lumb'ring Go album cover

Congratulations to my friends @michiganio on the release of their long awaited second LP "Once More A Lumb'ring Go"

This album is a beautiful collection of genuine retuned folk songs, many of which about lumbering, sailing, and laboring in Michigan.

In the spirit of retuning & repurposing, I got to dig through the open source archives of the @metmuseum in search of inspiration for a cover. I happened to come across these beautiful illustrations from an old cigarette ad campaign that perfectly capture the spirit of a few of the tracks on the album. An interesting design project, mostly just staying out of the way of something cool, with a little photoshopping here & there to personalize it.
