The 2019 Olympian was a 50th anniversary book for the Williamsville North staff and they chose the theme “Here & Now” to reflect both the relevance of the events of the current school year and the history of the school’s past 50 years.
This special edition is represented with a classic golden luminaire linen cover, laser cut to show through to the present day Williamsville North students on the front endsheet. Numerous spreads throughout the book feature black and white mods that call back to noteworthy moments from the school’s past.
But as it should be, the bulk of the attention is focused on the 2018-19 school year, with coverage broken up into traditional sections: student life, athletics and people. Division pages feature a large, dominant action photo with the subject framed inside a gold box, accentuated at the bottom of the page by a trio of smaller black and white images, again lending itself to the book’s historic feel.
