Project: Telstar

AdHouse Books is pleased to announce the following news about the forthcoming publication Project: Telstar.

April 25, 2003 ‹ Richmond, VA

Local "creatives" gathered on Friday night to celebrate the 2nd annual AIGA Greater Richmond Awards for Design Excellence (GRADE) Exhibition After 300-some entries were received for the competition, the panel of judges narrowed the finalists down to 49 winners in 15 categories.

AdHouse Books is proud to announce that the Project: Telstar Promo Pack garnered an award within the Miscellaneous Category. The Promo Pack was a limited edition item created for two different small press conventions held in early 2003. Items contained within the pack included: postcards, stickers, a membership card, a trading card, a poster and an ashcan for the forthcoming Project: Telstar book.

On a related note, mini-comix creator (and AdHouse employee) Chris Pitzer also received an award for his latest small press creation: Tek-tor Friends. The Tek-tor Friends mini-comic was the latest and most ambitious in his Procrastination Comics line. This limited "package" included a 28-page mini-comic bundled with a boxed inflatable character from the story.

Award-winning designer and illustrator David Plunkert has informed AdHouse that his contribution to Project: Telstar has been awarded the honor of appearing in the 2003 Communication Arts Illustration Annual.

The CA Illustration Annual is one of the most exclusive illustration competitions in the world. Last year's competition received 7,207 entries of which 229 were selected by a nationally represented jury of designers, art directors and illustrators. This year's annual will appear in July.
