Milton Glaser Poster+Book Giveaway
UPDATE: Comments are closed, we’ll be picking a winner today. Thank you to everyone who entered!
To Inform & Delight is a new documentary about the life and work of Milton Glaser. It’s currently playing in San Francisco, at the Roxie Theater, and will be in other selected US cities this summer. Further info on the site.
In support of the film, we are doing a giveaway of a couple signed posters and Glaser’s new book Drawing is Thinking. The grand prize will be one hand-signed (by Mr. Glaser himself) film poster and one copy of the book (displayed above). The runner up will receive one hand-signed (by Mr. Glaser himself) film poster. To enter, just comment on this post and be sure to leave your email address so that we can contact you if you win (email will not be publicly visible). The winners will be chosen at random from the comments on Tuesday, June 30th, 2009. Click here to enter!
If you’re in the San Francisco area, make sure to get out to the Roxie and catch this before it’s gone. It will be showing through the 25th of June. Also worth checking out is the Hilman Curtis short film on Glaser if you haven’t already.

Alupa says:
June 23, 2009 at 11:58 pmBest. Idea. Ever.
Mr. Glaser is a personal hero of mine. Good to hear that the film is getting the publicity it deserves. Makes me wish I still lived in the LA area so that I could catch a screening. Unfortunately, I think that unless it hits the threshold of 150,000 semi-wide release I will have to wait until the DVD. Which, makes me sad.
Brandon Russell says:
June 24, 2009 at 12:06 amAmazing giveaway! Thank you very much!
Hopefully this film will be played out here in Denver.
Brandon Russell says:
June 24, 2009 at 12:15 amOr should I say screening again… Since I missed it playing at the Denver Film Festival last year :/

June 24, 2009 at 1:35 amWhat a great giveaway!
Shame the UK is a little far away to catch the screening.
Misho Zivanov says:
June 24, 2009 at 1:53 amMilton is a true inspiration to the generations of new designers world wide. His works are the right example that great design with the right idea can produce a tidal wave impact of creative thinking.
I also think that I have 0% chances of winning giveaway, because I’m from Serbia, a country that’s lightyears away (by the postal terms) from the US.
Nevertheless, I still enjoy looking at Bob Dylans poster that I have printed and taped together out of A4 sheets of paper, back when it was the only way for me to have it on my wall. My room changed but I never had heart to take the poster down. It is worn down and some edges are torn, but it was the first thing I printed on my jet printer almost 10 years ago. I think it’s going to be hanging there for a lot more time.

I’ve been looking for an original Bob Dylan Vinyl so that I could get an original poster that comes in it.
This signed poster would be better.

yawooska babooska says:

Corinne says:
June 24, 2009 at 4:15 pmThis man is the artist who took graphic design from trade to triumph. When the history of graphic design in the U.S. is written, the book can be divided into sections: before and after Milton Glaser. I am thrilled he’s being honored for the genius and visionary artist that he is…
Bryce Driesenga says:
June 24, 2009 at 4:55 pmCan’t wait to see this movie when it comes out on disc, unless I am lucky enough to have it come to Grand Rapids, MI, but that is unlikely. I think this poster would be awesome.

Misho Zivanov says:
June 24, 2009 at 10:46 pmI’ll try sending my comment again. Send one yesterday but it never showed up in the list. Maybe it’s a conspitacy?
To bad I won’t be able to see this film, because I live in a country far, far, away… But stuff like tha sure need publicity and because of sites like this, we, mere mortals, have the opportunity to get some information and may have some chance of googlin’ for the way to find out more. Thanx for that. Here is a cheer for you – YAY!

Jim says:
June 27, 2009 at 8:11 amI was excited about the giveaway…Milton Glaser has been a hero since my childhood! One of the reasons I became a graphic designer, art/creative director was because of his simple and powerful images. I love the way he communicates through art and type! I was not aware of the book and I’m looking forward to an inspirational read!
Thanks!
