Discover Vancouver on Transit, a BC Transit brochure, 1990. This was the 100th anniversary of public transit in Vancouver and Victoria, British Columbia, as the logo attests. Illustrations in the brochure were credited to Robert Dobie, Jim Koll, Klaus Ravn, and Paulo Venturi, though I’m not sure who designed precisely which illustrations.

UPDATE: I received an email from James Koll, who recalls this brochure from his days freelancing at Slicko Studios. Slicko Studios, later known as the Ken Koo Creative Group was founded by Ken in 1982, built from a staff of 4 to 60+, and was acquired by the Cossette Group of companies in 2000. The company now operates under the name of Identica.

Coming Through, a Columbia SkyTrain Station poster signed by Harron (anyone know the first name?) celebrating the grand opening on February 14, 1989. A pretty remarkable feat, illustrating New Westminster all the way to North Vancouver Quay in a single picture! Hidden behind track ad billboards at Waterfront Station, still visible from behind a chain-linked fence.
