Winners of the international competition "Children are the rhythm of the world"
( The copy of the letter below comes from my usual trusted source, one of the worlds top graphic designers. What would I be without him ?)

First of all, we wish to apologize for having taken so long to inform you about the results of our poster competition "Children are the rhythm of the world". Dr Mellinghoff, the director of the German Poster Museum, retired on December 31st, 2001, due to a severe illness. Therefore, we had organizational problems informing you appropriately until now. However, you will shortly receive a letter from the head of the cultural department of Essen and the museum's administration. For now, the Plakat Kunst Hof Ruettenscheid would líke to thank you for your participation and let you know that your poster-design contribution has been short-listed and will hence be included in the competition's catalogue. The catalogue's design will be arranged by Prof. Niklaus Troxler.
