Here at Third Man, there are myriad textbooks, novels, design journals, websites, posters, newspaper clippings and records (old and new) that inspire the design team on a daily basis, though we don't always reveal our direct influences. This case is the exception to that rule. As another Vault contest, we are offering the vintage Brazilian postcard which provided direct inspiration the art for Vault package #23 -- the White Stripes Live Under Amazonian Lights package! Here's the scoop on how to be entered for a chance to win --
1.) Find the most fascinating fact you can about Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil, where package #23 took place
2.) Title the email "Vault Package #23 Manaus Photo Contest"
3.) Send your one-sentence entry with a link to your online source to: vaultcontests@thirdmanrecords.com
Please note: only one entry per member! The contest is open until Thursday, February 19th, at which time the winner will be picked and announced. Also, some of our second-favorite facts will be posted with the winning entry, just for fun.
Have at it!
