Poster Design Competition

David Laing Book Collecting Prize - Poster Design Competition

In previous years, the Centre for Research Collections has run a competition, open to Graphic Design and Illustration students at Edinburgh College of Art, to design an eye-catching A3 poster to advertise The David Laing Student Book Collecting Prize. It is not possible to run a competition for 2025-26, but hopefully it will return in another year.  

Here are the two most recent winning designs.
