Check out this eye catching promo celebrating stories and images from Italy – created by photographer Peter Taylor. Makes for a great mailer. Peter says, “I had been trying to figure out a couple of things since the beginning of 2012. One, how best to promote the stories from Italy and, two, what kind of big promo to do this year.
