  1. At a later point, Letraset offered the caps of Annonce Grotesque in 96pt as a pair of sheets, 130A and 130B, now with numerals. Shown here are copies produced in Brasil (date unknown).

  2. On his portfolio website*, Ken Garland mentions that the double crown (762mm × 508mm) poster for the 1962 Easter March was his first work for the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, made shortly after he established Ken Garland & Associates. The version in landscape format is “an extension of the double crown poster to quad crown (762mm × 1016mm), created by overlapping the image from the double crown to convey the idea of marching banners”.

    *) After Garland’s death in 2021, the website disappeared from the original URL, but thanks to the Internet Archive, a copy has been preserved.
