We at Designers And Books and The Daily Heller are super pleased to announce our crowdfunded victory in the battle to get Seymour Chwast’s At War With War funded on Kickstarter.

Thanks to many of you, this very special book that Seymour Chwast would not have otherwise been able to see published will be ready to ship in November. At present, we have: Over 750 backers; over $105,000 pledged. The video was viewed over 9,600 times (only 600 by us), with a 37% play-through rate. We’re grateful to the backers who pledged for rewards and to the many who supported in so many other ways, like sharing the news with friends, organizing events and exhibits, and otherwise helping the word go viral.

We are looking at possible author/editor/backer events to celebrate the launch in November.
