Eye 85 has just been launched and here's a fun idea from the publishers...
"To celebrate the launch of Eye no. 85, throughout June we are tracking sightings of the magazine as it makes its way around the globe. To enter the competition, take a photo of Issue 85 when it reaches your corner of the world (on your doormat, in the studio, on display in a bookstore, etc.), and upload it to our Facebook page (remembering to tag the location). Whoever takes the most interesting photo (as judged by Eye’s editor and art director) will win a year’s subscription to the magazine for themselves or a friend. The winner will be announced on 1 July 2013"
...and here are some of the photos so far...

...and as you might have noticed, these particular pictures also include our Size Format Stock booklet that we sent out in partnership with Eye.

Have a look at the other pics from around the world on facebook:
Size Format Stock is the booklet that I wrote in collaboration with Studio8. Originally written with the students that I give occasional talks to in mind, it has since become a firm favourite with the mature graphic designer! It is A5 portrait saddle stitched with a 4pp cover on Colorset 120gsm and a 16pp text printed on Offenbach Bible 60gsm. It is now in it's third edition and I've printed and distributed over 20,000 copies. If you would like a copy, drop me an email and I'll pop one in the post.

The publication Size|Format|Stock was first published ten years ago. This is the booklet that I wrote in collaboration with Zoë Bather at Studio8. Originally written to leave with students after I've given a talk, it has since become a firm favourite with many graphic designers both in the UK and abroad.
