Wake Up the World

We have been working on a really interesting project with the owner of Free-Men Companies, Eric McGuire.

Free-Men Companies is a financial planning organization with a strong foundation in civic responsiblitiy. McGuire has written and published his book, Wake Up the World: Prophetic Warnings and Our Duty to Protect Freedom and the Constitution of the United States. The book is a compilation of instruction from the Founding Fathers and LDS Church leaders regarding the constitution of the United States.


McGuire had a gorgeous cover for his paperback books
 We worked with the author to design a custom cover design for the leather bound edition of his book. All of the cover design is done by hand using a silk screen printing method. This allows us a lot of flexibility in the design and provides a unique affect that is hard to replicate with offset printing or machine stamping. After working with McGuire, we settled on a clean, elegant design.


Books with their new leather covers, laid out to be screen-printed.

The Free-Men logo was screen printed onto the back of each book

Books laid out to dry with the first coat of sealant.

 One of the best parts of the job is working with authors and being exposed to some of the amazing things being done and said by the individuals in our community.
