Spoken Memories book for DJHS

Dallas Jewish Historical Society wanted to create a book to document the oral histories it had collected from many of the key characters in Dallas’ Jewish history.

Although the book is over 200 pages, we kept the layout fresh and interesting by creating a flexible 4-column layout; using a blue tint for an all-over background color on some pages; accenting headlines by occasionally layering a script underneath; setting the intro paragraph for each person in small caps; and adding white frames with soft shadows to all photos to maintain their antique feel.

The result is a beautiful book that honors many key players in Dallas’ rich history.
