Competition For
Xmas Seal Design
Local artists today were invited by Mrs. Charles Tyroler, II, Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association of Northern Virginia to enter the nationwide competition for the design of the 1973 Christmas Seal. A $1,000 cash award will be given the artist whose design is chosen to spearhead the annual drive against emphysema, tuberculosis and other respiratory diseases, and air pollution, Mrs. Tyroler said. The design itself will appear on the Christmas Seals mailed to millions of U.S. homes during the 1973 holiday season. It also will appear on posters, billboards, and television screens.
Production schedules require that the Christmas Seal design be selected two years in advance of issue, Mrs. Tyroler explained. The 1971 Seal, created by James J. Clarke of California, goes in the mail this Fall. The 1972 Christmas Seal, now in production, was designed by Linda Layman of Massachusetts. Deadline for entries is October 1, 1971.
Contest rules and information, and copies of Christmas Seal designs from 1907 to 1970 are available from the local TB-RD association at 17 South Royal Avenue, Front Royal, Virginia 22630, telephone 635-5400.
“Such well-known artists as Stevan Dohanos, Heidi Brandt and Dale Nichols have contributed Christmas Seal designs in past years,” Mrs. Tyroler said. “But the national contest also has been won by artists just beginning their careers. We hope that a local' artist will submit the design of the 1973 Christmas Seal.”
