A&E sends fans souvenir from the Bates Motel
Select online fans of A&E’s Psycho prequel Bates Motel received an interesting package in the mail today. As a thank you to the fans of the show, followers of the shows tumblr page were sent a reproduction of the Bates Motel guest book.
The book contained a set of high-res reproductions of fan art as submitted by the show’s busy online community on the tumblr page.
As the folks at A&E explain…
Over the past two seasons of “Bates Motel”, fans from around the world have captured the rich spirit of this amazing series through their original artwork, discovered across multiple social media platforms. In advance of our Season 3 premiere on March 9th, A&E has partnered with Tumblr to aggregate the best of this artwork and will showcase 50 select pieces in the enclosed custom “Bates Motel Guest Book.” On the back of each individual print, you will find a quote from each artist expressing what it is they love about the show. The designers of the art, in addition to thousands of “Bates Motel” fans, will be surprised with their very own copy of this celebratory piece.
About 2,000 of the books went out, making quite a nice little gift for dedicated fans of the show.
