Nashville Wraps’ little secret

September 2, 2009

in About Nashville Wraps

Were you aware that since 2003 there has been someone hiding on your Nashville Wraps catalog cover? That someone has four paws, big brown eyes and lots of fur. We like to call him Pooch, but there is a little more to the story.

Marty in our Graphics Department was designing our catalog cover that year, and, just for fun, hid a little Welch Corgi on the cover that looked a lot like Saint, the dog of our founder. Saint had recently passed away.

The children of her original owners had given her the name Saint because she looked so much like a St. Bernard when she was born. She was a mixed breed, but looked more like a Corgi as she got older. She was very smart, eager to please, and very loving. “Saint never talked back, but just looked at us with those huge beautiful brown eyes that looked like they were outlined with eyeliner.”

Nashville Wraps management  liked the idea of keeping the dog on the catalog cover simply because it was fun and whimsical. It was indicative of the Nashville Wraps style and mindset. In other words, we try not to take ourselves too seriously and we don’t always do things the conventional way.

The Marketing Department nicknamed the dog “Pooch” and began using him in some of our advertising at the time. And with every catalog since 2003 we have hidden him somewhere on the cover. See if you can find Pooch smiling back at you online in our Pet Packaging page.

Your beautiful new Nashville Wraps 2009 Holiday Catalog is on its way. Before you open it, we hope you have as much fun finding Pooch on the cover as we do in hiding him.
