Description:


Book jacket for Toby Young's memoir of screwing up his life and job while working at Vanity Fair in NYC. One of my original designs had skyscrapers coming out of the cigarette pack instead of cigarettes but the publisher thought I was "reaching". I'll upload that layout if I can locate it in my archives.
This is an older piece but I've included it since the movie will be coming out soon and it's always interesting to see how Hollywood visually interprets a story compared to the publishing world.
