Shigeo Fukuda (1932 – 2009) was a sculptor, graphic artist and poster designer who created optical illusions. His art pieces usually portray deception, such as Lunch With a Helmet On, a sculpture created entirely from forks, knives, and spoons, that casts a detailed shadow of a motorcycle. Fukuda was born in Tokyo to a family that was involved in manufacturing toys. After the end of World War II, he became interested in the minimalist Swiss Style of graphic design, and graduated from Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music in 1956. The New York Times described how Fukuda's posters "distilled complex concepts into compelling images of logo-simplicity". His commercial work included his creation of the official poster for the 1970 World's Fair in Osaka. A 1980 poster created for Amnesty International features a clenched fist interwoven with barbed wire, with the letter "S" in the word "Amnesty" at the top of the poster formed from a linked shackle. "Victory 1945", one of his best-known works, features a projectile heading straight at the opening of the barrel of a cannon. A pair of posters created to celebrate Earth Day include a design showing the Earth as a seed opening against a solid sea-blue background and "1982 Happy Earth Day", which shows an axe with its head against the ground and a small branch sprouting upwards from its handle. In 1987, Fukuda was inducted into the Art Directors Club Hall of Fame in New York City, which described him as "Japan's consummate visual communicator", making him the first Japanese designer chosen for this recognition. The Art Directors Club noted the "bitingly satirical commentary on the senselessness of war" shown in "Victory 1945", which won him the grand prize at the 1975 Warsaw Poster Contest, a competition whose proceeds went to the Peace Fund Movement. His home outside Tokyo featured a 4-foot-high (1.2 m) front door that would appear far away from someone approaching the house. This door was a visual trick, with the actual entrance to the house being an unornamented white door designed to blend in seamlessly with the walls of the house.

Sheet 7 of 1944 Mississippi River Meander Belt by Harold Fisk Sheet 7 features the area between Old Town Bend, Island No 64, Phillips County, Desh County, Island No 69, Henrico, Victoria Bend, and ends near Montgomery Island, on the Arkansas side. On the Mississippi side it starts near Horseshoe Lake, Mississippi, and continues on through Clarksdale, Coahoma Country, Island No 67, and ends near Concordia Island, Mississippi. The whole set includes 15 sheets. You can find them in Our Store It features the Geological Investigation of the ancient courses of the Mississippi River Meander Belt from southern Illinois to southern Louisiana, created by cartographer and geologist Harold Fisk compiled for the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers. Each of the fifteen sheets document in vivid color a different portion of the Mississippi River, the geography and its various courses over time. All of these maps represent the lower Mississippi’s “meander belt” — the area of a valley bottom across which the river’s channel has shifted over the millennia. The meander belt of the Mississippi — which has the third largest watershed in the world — is immense. The 15 maps is only a portion of the whole report. The U.S. Army Corp of Engineers contracted Fisk as a consultant. He made the full technical report “Geological Investigation of the Alluvial Valley of the Lower Mississippi River”. Richard Russell describes the Mississippi work as “exhaustive” and “monumental”. And given its detail, Fisk completed mapping over 2,000 miles of the Mississippi’s present and past bends with astonishing speed. He notes in the report’s introduction that the project launched in May, 1941. Fisk, died in 1964, before the age of 60. This Map comes with a white border around it.
