Art History professor Johanne Sloan and Design and Computation Arts professor Rhona Richman-Kenneally have edited and contributed to an illustrated book of 13 essays that revive memories of Expo coverage in 1967.
Expo 67 - Not Just a Souvenir, is a richly illustrated book with more than two dozen full-colour photographs and another two dozen in black and white depicting postcards, on-site restaurant menus, advertisements and even pages from a visitor's official Expo 67 passport. The photos also document media coverage of Expo 67 in the Toronto Star, the Journal de Montreal and the cover of the now defunct Montreal Star's Weekend Magazine.
The academics who contributed to the book, including Design and Computation Arts Martin Racine, teach in a variety of fields ranging from architecture through communications, media and cultural studies to sociology.
The book Expo 67 - Not Just a Souvenir is published by University of Toronto Press as the latest in its cultural spaces series.
