TBWA Hunt Lascaris has been awarded the top accolade in the 2002 Eagle Print Awards, winning the Black Eagle for their Wonderbra "Pull-string" ad.
TBWA Hunt Lascaris also pipped Lowe Bull Calvert Pace to the post to win Gold in the Campaign category for Purity "Luke Lockjaw; Projectile Boy; Bibbed Boycotter". Their Wonderbra "Pull-string" ad which won the Black Eagle made a big impression on the judges, who hailed it as the "perfect product demonstration ad". The same ad won the Gold in the Best Tactical Use of Medium category. Says judge Chris O'Shea: "It was one of those ads that just stuck in your head. It was there the whole time, in the back of my mind, while I was judging. I was that impressed."
