MULTI-AD WINS GRAPHIC ARTS MANAGEMENT AWARD

PEORIA, IL--Peoria-based Multi-Ad Services, Inc., will receive one of the
printing industry's highest honors--the Gold Management Plus award--at the
annual meeting of the National Association of Printers and Lithographers
(NAPL), to be held February 21-25 in Scottsdale, Arizona.

One of only five companies to win the award twice, Multi-Ad first captured
the Gold Award in 1985 and Silver Awards in 1986, '87, '89 and '90.

"The NAPL is the most progressive and aggressive organization in the
graphic arts industry," Larry Clore, president of Multi-Ad, said. "To be
recognized by them indicates Multi-Ad not only responds to change within
the industry, but also leads some of those changes.

"Management Plus judges took a comprehensive look at the company," Clore
continued. "Everything from customer satisfaction and product quality to
areas of profitibility, environmental consciousness and employee
relations."

Clore also credited Multi-Ad's continued growth during difficult economic
times for this most recent award. "When we're up and the rest of the
industry is down, I think that sets us apart from the pack."

Multi-Ad employs approximately 370 people at its Peoria headquarters. Total
employment, including those in Multi-Ad's British, Canadian, and French
offices is pegged at nearly 450 people.

Employee-owned since 1986, Multi-Ad produces custom-designed art for
newspapers and advertising-dedicated computer software, plus creative,
pre-press, printing, binding and distribution services.

The Management Plus Awards Program is sponsored annually by NAPL, American
Printer magazine and Didde Web Press Company.
