Boston Litho Club to Host 31st Gallery of Superb Printing Gala in May

BURLINGTON, MA—January 8, 2008—The 31st Annual Gallery of Superb Printing, produced by the Boston Litho & Craftsmen’s Club, will be held on Tuesday, May 6th, 2008, at the Marriott Hotel in Burlington, MA.

The Gallery is New England’s original printing awards show that honors the quality demonstrated across a wide range of print applications by New England print manufacturers and other service providers. The BL&CC has produced this prestigious awards gala for the last 30 years. The Club is a nonprofit, volunteer-run organization dedicated to furthering the appreciation and growth of the printing industry in the greater Boston area, and its members all work in the industry.

The annual Gallery awards show has always been a highlight of the printing industry in greater Boston. Winners of the Gallery Awards are widely regarded as among the highest-quality print manufacturers in the region. Framed Superb Gallery awards - with their familiar black bow tie logo - can be seen on display in many of the area’s finest printing firms.

This year, awards will be given in 46 different categories, including art prints, annual reports, calendars, screen printing, direct mail, stationery, point of purchase, invitations, and packaging. New for 2008 are three categories for small presses (under 20”), as well as four categories specifically for digital printing.
