Gridiron Legacy

Gridiron Legacy is a self-published project that chronicles the early days of football. The author’s great-grandfather was among the pioneers of the game and personal memorabilia as well as Hall of Fame artifacts populate the pages. “For this book, I set out to play up contrasts; a clean, rather refined layout with a bold, playful display font used in unexpected ways.” 

 
“Whether for a simple board book or a complicated, 300-page, illustrated book, Carling Design is always the first call we make. Shoreline has worked hand-in-mouse with Carling for more than ten years and they have never delivered anything less than superb work...and on time and on budget. I personally also worked with Tom while I was at Sports Illustrated and can also highly recommend him for magazine projects as well. Plus, along with being a fine designer, he’s also one of the nicest people you’ll ever work with in this business!”
