Generic Fedora Poster Designs for Events

[John Adams]

Please don't misinterpret me ... I am in no way suggesting that the 
creativity of the art team be squelched.  Every day, there are tons of 
examples of new, interesting, innovative and creative designs that still 
exist within the "confines" of a brand's identity.  The designers that I 
know see this as a welcome challenge!
