[GBW] Society of Bookbinders International Competition 2009

[Karen Hanmer <karen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Registration is now open for the Society of Bookbinders International 
Competition 2009.
 
Bindings are due in between 1st May - 1st June with judging taking place 
mid June.
 
There are four categories to enter and the prize fund is an estimated £5000.
 
There is no set book - you can bind whatever book you like!
 
There is no registration fee, making it easier for those binders without 
Sterling bank accounts - entry fees that are due when you send in your 
binding, maybe paid by Sterling cheque, bank transfer, postal order, 
credit card, paypal or cash (at your own risk).
 
All bindings will be displayed at Warwick University during the Society 
of Bookbinders biennial conference in August 2009.  Winning bindings 
then go on a travelling exhibition (exact venues and dates to be confirmed).
 
For more details please see the society web site at 
www.societyofbookbinders.com <http://www.societyofbookbinders.com> in 
the events section.
 
Any questions, please feel free to email us.
 
If you would like to register, either download a form from the web site 
or copy and paste the form below and email it to us. 
 
We look forward to hearing from you.
 
Best wishes
 
Stuart and Louise Brockman
