Unshelved strip for 10/23/2006

Pimp My Bookcart - the contest!

The virtual ink had hardly dried on our "Pimp My Bookcart" sequence when we started getting emails from libraries and schools talking about how they planned to customize, augment, or otherwise pimp out their bookcarts. So let's have a contest! Here's how it works:

  • Email us pictures of your pimped-out bookcart - front, back, and sides. You agree to let us post your entry on the site.
  • Bill and Gene will pick the winning entries
  • First prize gets a $250 gift certificate to the Overdue Media Store plus a signed custom drawing of the Unshelved character(s) of your choice by Bill
  • Runner-up gets a $50 gift certificate to the Overdue Media Store
  • We'll post the all the entries on the site so that everyone can enjoy your hard work and creative flair
  • Open to libraries, schools, businesses, and anyone with a bookcart that needs a little something extra
  • The deadline for entries is January 15th, so get pimping!

P.S. For inspiration we offer our new shirts

You wanted it, you've got it - your pimped-out bookcart extravaganza! At the store.
