I had an 'advertising effectiveness' award from IPC back in about 2004 for a Paul Smith seasonal press ad campaign what I wroted all by myselfs. I think I also got a silver D&AD (or nomination/commendation or something) in about 1994 for some hand-drawn type but it may have only been a nomination like I say ... it appeared in the book but I don't know anything about D&AD so don't know if that means it was awarded or just that they were short on things to put in the book at the time. Recently I was awarded the accolade of designing the fourth greatest album sleeve of all time, and that was awarded to me by somebody like a courier company in Hampshire or a CD replication factory in Tipton... something very fantastic like that. That there represents the complete sum total of my personal vocational awardings, or even just vague glimmers of awardings. If anybody has a D&AD annual book from 1994 or 1995, can they maybe have a look and see if I won anything for my hand-drawn type? It was all the rage at the time.
I used to have lots of promise. WAY BACK. WAY BACK IN THE OLDEN DAYS.
