One went to Fred Koop, who does layout and design for MBH in the category of full colour front cover design (Spring/Summer Encounter). The cover featured a textured photo by Wally Schmidt of a surrealistic sculpture depicting a figure reaching upwards. The judge wrote, "This cover is very powerful. It has a mystical quality".
