World Award

ISLANDS residents who have noted the effective advertisements published by Robert Gillespie Pty., Ltd., of Sydney, on page 1 of the Pacific Islands Monthly will not be surprised to learn that these displays and especially the two-page “spread” in the issue of June, 1950 won the world contest conducted annually by the Coleman Company Inc. of Canada, for the best Coleman Lamp advertisements published outside the United States. Ex pert judges, after considering entries from 40 different countries, put the PIM dis plays at the top of the list.

Mr. Arthur A. Warner, F.0.A., Sydney advertising agent, was responsible for the design and layout of the series. Last year, Mr. Warner’s Coleman entries, from PIM, filled third place.
