My first business card… circa 1990!

I setup in business around 1990… I think. This card was created in CorelDraw, back in the days when neither I nor the software knew much at all about trapping (huh?). People loved that card :)

    What a great idea Alister. Mine was nothing much to look at – pretty shocking really. I’d give you the URL to see it but your comments box doesn’t like that and threw up an exception :-) But I will blog about it at my own blog!

    I think it looks great!!! Even though it was over 16 years ago, but I must admit they made a pretty sweet job here!

    I'm gonna try to find my first business card. It's from 1992 and I got it – just don't know where, but I'm gonna search for it this weekend… (p.s.: It was also created with one of the first Corel Draw versions…) :o )

    Your article makes me think about my first business cards – also created by myself with photoshop and also really "oldschool"… I'm gonna look, where it is… I'm sure I didn't throw it away…
