Eye caramba!
Let’s call it a fawin.
Sometimes my contact lenses feel like this.
Heinz shows us that not all labels are bad.
Heinzsight. I love it when somebody takes a brand and puts more into it than they have to. In this case, Heinz did some sweet seasonal ketchup bottle labels — They didn’t have to, but they did, and that made it better. Brand personality, yo.
Groovy work, Heinz. I hope you do something like this again soon.
NOTE: I was told there was also a summer beachball tomato label, but alas, I was not in time.
You can’t lick this stamp collection (because someone else already did).
On January 2nd, 2016, I won an eBay auction for a lot of nine comic books from the late-60s and early-70s. Along with my winning bid price, I paid an additional five bucks for economy shipping.

In 2015, Clayton Hove found them on a dusty K-Mart shelf in Bismarck, North Dakota, and bought them because he thought they were kinda neat.
Puma, I thought I knew ya.
This is thinking outside the box in the truest sense! Big props to the creative and practical minds behind Puma’s Clever Little Bag, using 65% less paper than regular shoeboxes. Plus, a reusable bag. Clever indeed.
My 1999 prediction for the first Apple wearable — Qwerto!
Note: Back in the 90s, I did a few slogan and jingle contests on my agency’s website and also created the scenarios for each season. What you will find below was one of them. (I hope to have the rest of them preserved here in the near future.)
The PAW! World’s Worst Slogan Game Scenario Number Seven: Project Qwerto
It’s been another run-of-the-mill Monday morning at the ol’ advertising agency. You promptly showed up for work three hours late and have settled into the daily grind of creating marvelous, cutting-edge ads for your admiring roster of global clients. And a small black and white print advertisement for the local babushka factory.

I will buy wine based on label design.
This beautifully-realized two-piece wine bottle label is for Carnivor Wines’ Cabernet Sauvignon 2012 (Modesto, California).
I can’t wait to taste what’s inside.
