As you know if you’re a core TPM Reader, the Golden Dukes are coming. And momentum and excitement are already starting to build.

But this year we’re considering something new. The famed Golden Dukes statuette has existed going back to 2007. But it’s always just been an image, a mere concept in our quest for the ultimate scandal. Well, this year we are considering actually commissioning the actual statuette and bestowing it in person to the winner of the Best Scandal – General Interest.

So here’s the deal. We’re looking into different vendors to actually create the Dukes statuettes. But I wanted to see whether among our TPM readership we might have a maker of statuettes. Now, to be clear: we’re not looking for a freebie here. We’re looking for someone who can do the Golden Dukes justice. And we have a budget.

So, are you up to the task? If you’re in this line of work and are interested in the commission, let us know. Drop us a line at the TPM comments line up at the top of the site.

Now to get everyone’s Golden Dukes juices flowing, let’s relive some Golden Dukes awards ceremonies from years past …
