- All entrants will receive a collector’s postcard commemorating the Silver Birch PressBukowski Anthology (August 2013).
- Honorable mentions will receive a postcard and a refrigerator magnet.
- Top three will receive postcard, refrigerator magnet, and a copy of the Silver Birch Press Bukowski Anthology, a 272-page collection of poetry & prose about Charles Bukowski as well as portraits of the author from over 75 writers and artists around the world.
