Lawrence Schiller won a couple of Graflex awards for his photography back in the 1950's and 1960's. I am currently organizing his archives for him and I need to find out exactly awards he won. I was hoping someone might be able to help me out. Thanks so much.

Graflex ran a photo contest for at over a decade with multiple "winners" each year. (The real winner was Graflex since they got to keep and exploit all of the entries, not just the winners)

Graflex had a trade paper called Trade Notes, this went out to all of the dealers across the country. Many times they announced the winners in there but there was never any complete listing like we have with say the Oscars.

Without a specific year it would be hard to find. If you could narrow it down it bit it would help.
