In addition, the following elements must be mentioned on the back of the cartoon:

- statement whether or not the cartoon(s) should be returned.
All cartoons can be displayed at the exhibition or published in a virtual catalogue created
for this purpose, without any financial compensation for the artist. Furthermore, the
cartoons may be used to make publicity for the cartoon contest and for the City of Bruges.
The three prize-winning cartoons will become property of the Municipality of the City of
Bruges. The cartoonists who stated that they wanted their cartoons returned will receive
their works by post. The organizers will take care when returning the cartoons, but cannot
