With a beaming smile, Bogle shakes hands with L. Hertel, the publicity officer for the LCC evening classes, as his groundbreaking design takes center stage in the background. Having recently graduated from Bradford College of Arts and Crafts, Bogle had just embarked on his professional journey as a designer for a prestigious London publishing firm.
