Welcome to the Bridgeman Book Cover Design Awards 2019!
Bridgeman Images prides itself on working closely with designers in all industries, but since we began nearly 50 years ago, the working relationship with book cover designers has evolved considerably and is now unmatched in the licensing industry.
