Here’s your chance to create a unique piece of Chip Shop Awards history.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of the creative industry’s most audacious awards scheme, and to celebrate the milestone we will be hosting a special exhibition next month paying homage to one of the Chip Shops' most inventive categories – The Best Use of a Shop Window Postcard.

As well as showcasing some of the most ingenious Chip-winning postcards from the last decade, we want to commission 10 new ones to add to the hall of fame.

That's where you come in.

We want you to design a postcard that we can display on our gallery window for the duration of the exhibition at Framestore in London.

As ever with the Chip Shops, there are no rules. All you need to do is email your entries to chipshoppostcards@thedrum.com by 5pm on Thursday 19 September.

We’ll then put all the work we receive on The Drum website and the top 10, as voted for by our readers, will be hung with only the finest Blu-Tack at our unique Chip celebration.

And more than that, the 10 winning designers will be invited to the exhibition’s VIP launch night on Wednesday 2 October.

The Chip Shop Awards exhibition will be open to the public from 3-19 October at Framestore, 9 Noel Street, London. The hashtag for our competition is #chipshoppostcard.
