Harvey Award

Post by Stan Sakai »

Sergio just called me from the Harvey Awards ceremony in Baltimore, where he is the keynote speaker.

I won the Harvey Award for lettering. It's my first Harvey.

Gasp! Kool! congrats Stan


... for lettering you say - nice but it would be a whole lot more satisfying if you'd won it for your artwork or writing... but hey!

it's still awesome

Congratulations! :D

I know my mental image of a statue of a large white rabbit is incorrect, but it is the first image to pop into my head when I hear "Harvey Award".
