The Firecracker Press is happy to announce we've been selected for the 2007 Print Magazine Regional Design Annual. We've been picked for 3 awards which will be announced and published in the November issue. We're not shy about patting ourselves on the back a bit. However, we are most proud that the 3 pieces beating out over 20,000 entries are ALL for St. Louis based clients. They are listed as follows...

Entry 1. Business Card for Marie Oberkirsch.
Marie makes wonderful textiles and is a teacher for fiber arts at a few local colleges. She also works for Laumeier Sculpture Park and helps plan their wildly successful art fair each year.

Entry 2. Book Cover for Observable Books Reading Anthology.
This organization is run by Aaron Belz. He holds monthly poetry readings at the Schlafly Bottleworks and publishes a number of books each year. To date Firecracker has done four books for his reading series.

Entry 3. Invitation for 2006 Designer Plate Show at The Firecracker Press.
In 2006 The Firecracker Press and local teacher and artist Michael Kathriner planned a gallery showing of dinner plates designed by local artists. The show also helped to debut the gallery space at Firecracker, now being used to house a portion of our type collection.

If you see any of these fine folks please congratulate them. They're all doing great work and The Firecracker Press is proud to work with such interesting and innovative individuals. Be sure to pick up the Regional Design Annual on newsstands in November.
