Red Line Distribution is an independent music distributor focusing primarily on the needs and distribution of the Chicago music community. Every summer the distributor offers a sampler CD of the best bands playing around Chicago’s music community.
For the summer sampler in 2003 a famous print from the Chicago fire was adapted and colored for the background. That summer it was hot as hell, so what better to represent the sweltering Chicago summer than the Chicago fire? Bank Gothic was used for the type, and while we’re not too fond of Bank Gothic around these parts, the rigidty and moderninity of the typeface counter-acted the antique feel of the image in a pretty nice and unexpected way.
