SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS:

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies
by the Board of Directors of ALL-COMM MEDIA CORPORATION. ("All-Comm") for use at
a Special Meeting of Shareholders of All-Comm to be held at 9:30 a.m., on
Wednesday, August 14, 1996, at 400 Corporate Pointe, Culver City, California.
The purposes of the Special Meeting are to approve management's proposal to
increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company from
6,250,000 shares to 36,250,000 shares and to authorize, among other things, the
amendment of the All-Comm's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and
such other documentation as may be required to effectuate this increase.  The
Notice, this Proxy Statement, and the accompanying proxy card are being mailed
beginning July 11, 1996 to shareholders of record of All-Comm's common stock
("Common Stock") at the close of business on July 10, 1996, the record date for
determining shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, such Special
Meeting.  Each share entitles the registered holder to one vote.  As of July 10,
1996, there were 3,186,734 shares of Common Stock outstanding.

All shares represented by proxies will be voted by the individuals designated on
the enclosed proxy card, all of whom are members of the Board of Directors, in
accordance with the shareholders' directions.  If the proxy card is signed and
returned without specific directions with respect to the matters to be acted
upon, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of the
Board of Directors described below.  Any shareholder giving a proxy may revoke
it at any time before such proxy is voted at the Special Meeting by giving
written notice of revocation to either the Company's secretary (via fax to
310/342-2801) or to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (via fax to
212/509-5152), appointed by the Company to count the votes of the shareholders.
Once a proxy has been revoked in writing, a shareholder may either (a) attend
the Special Meeting and vote in person, or (b) submit a later-dated proxy.  The
Chairman of the Board will announce the closing of the polls during the Special
Meeting.  All proxies must be received prior to the closing of the polls in
order to be counted.

<PAGE>

A shareholder may designate a person or persons other than himself or herself to
act as the shareholder's proxy rather than the directors named on the proxy
card.  The shareholder may do so in writing delivered no later than August 13,
1996 by means of facsimile or other electronic transmission to the secretary of
the Company (fax: 310/342-2801), and delivering the signed proxy card, together
with the original authorization, to such person or persons to present the same
at the Special Meeting.  The written authorization must state the name or names
of the person or persons authorized by the shareholder to act as alternative
proxy or proxies.  The person(s) designated by the shareholder must present the
signed proxy card and the original written authorization to so act at the
Special Meeting in order for the shares to be voted.

Officers, agents, and employees of the Company and other solicitors retained by
the Company may, by letter, by telephone or in person, make requests for the
return of proxies and may receive proxies on behalf of the Company.  Brokers,
nominees, fiduciaries, and other custodians will be requested to forward
soliciting material to the beneficial owners of shares and will be reimbursed
for their expenses.  All costs of soliciting proxies will be borne by the
Company.

Shareholders representing a majority of the Common Stock outstanding and
entitled to vote must be present in person or represented by proxy in order to
constitute a quorum to conduct business at the Special Meeting.  A list of
eligible voters will be available at the Special Meeting.  The following
proposal is to be submitted to the shareholders at the Special Meeting:
Approval of a management proposal to amend the Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the
Company to 36,250,000 shares.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT.  PLEASE SIGN, DATE, AND RETURN YOUR PROXY CARD PROMPTLY
SO THAT A QUORUM MAY BE REPRESENTED AT THE SPECIAL MEETING.

VOTING

As described below, the Board of Directors is submitting to the Shareholders at
the Special Meeting the proposal to amend the Company's Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation to increase by 30,000,000 shares the number of
authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company to 36,250,000 shares, and to
take all such further action as may be required to effectuate the increase.
Under Nevada law, in order for a proposal to amend the Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation to pass, a majority of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock entitled to vote on the proposal must approve the amendment.  In
this instance, abstentions will have the same effect as a vote against the
proposal.

Each share of Common Stock represented at the Special Meeting is entitled to one
vote on the sole matter expected to be brought before the Special Meeting by the
Board of Directors.  If no directions are given and the signed proxy card is
returned, the members of the Board of Directors will vote the shares represented
by such proxy in accordance with the Directors' recommendation on the proposal
reflected on the proxy card, and at their discretion on any other matter that
may properly come before the Special Meeting.  In circumstances where brokers
are prohibited from exercising discretionary authority for beneficial owners who
have not returned proxies to the brokers (so-called "broker non-votes"), those
shares will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal.

DIRECTORS' PROPOSAL TO AMEND THE AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION
TO INCREASE BY 30,000,000 THE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OF THE
COMPANY TO 36,250,000 SHARES.

<PAGE>

The Board of Directors proposes and recommends to the shareholders for their
approval an amendment to the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the
Company by amending the first paragraph of Article VI to read:

          "The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock which
          the Corporation shall have the authority to issue is 36,300,000
          shares which shall be divided into two classes as follows:  (i)
          50,000 shares of Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") of the par
          value $.01 per share, and (ii) 36,250,000 shares of Common Stock
          ("Common Stock") of the par value of $.01 per share."

The shareholders' approval of the proposal to increase the number of authorized
shares of Common Stock of the Company includes granting the officers of the
Company, and each of them acting alone, the authority to take all such further
actions as may be required to effectuate such increase, including, but not
limited to, the filing of a formal Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation on behalf of the Company with the Nevada
Secretary of State's Office.

The Company on August 22, 1995, effected a one-for-four reverse stock split of
its Common Stock.  Such reverse stock split reduced the authorized number of
shares of Common Stock from 25,000,000 shares to 6,250,000 shares.

The Company is presently obligated to issue an aggregate of 9,526,581 shares of
Common Stock (giving effect to the aforementioned 1-for-4 reverse stock split
which occurred on August 22, 1995) contingent upon the exercise of options and
warrants and upon the conversion of shares of convertible preferred stock and
convertible debt obligations issued and delivered by the Company and, as
hereinafter indicated, subject in certain instances to the approval of the
proposal (the "Proposal") to amend Article VI of the Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of Common
Stock to 36, 250,000 shares, as follows:

534,338 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of options granted under the
Company's 1991 Stock Option Plan, 81,000 exercisable subject to approval of the
Proposal.

2,480,000 shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Company's shares of
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock").  The shares of
Preferred Stock were issued and sold in June of 1996 for an aggregate cash
consideration of $3,100,000.

245,577 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of warrants (other than those
referred to hereinafter) issued by the Company, 130,000 exercisable subject to
approval of the Proposal.

Subject to approval of the Proposal, 166,666 shares of Common Stock upon
conversion of the Company's Convertible Notes (the "Notes"), 3,100,000 shares of
Common Stock upon exercise of warrants issued ratably to purchasers of shares of
Preferred Stock and 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock upon exercise of warrants
issued ratably to purchasers of Notes.  the Notes were issued and sold in June
of 1996 for an aggregate cash consideration of $1,000,000.

Reservation of additional shares of Common Stock of the Company may in the
future be required by applicable anti-dilution provisions of the aforementioned
Plan and securities.

Agreements to which the Company is a party obligate the Company to seek
shareholder approval of an increase in its authorized shares of Common Stock to
permit exercise of the warrants.

<PAGE>

In addition, the Board of Directors believes that it is important to ensure that
the Company will continue to have an adequate number of authorized and unissued
shares of Common Stock available for future use.  The Company's growth strategy
is to expand in the direct marketing, information and media services industry
through the acquisition of specialized companies and fostering the internal
efficiencies and growth of those companies.  If the proposed amendment is
adopted by the shareholders, the additional authorized Common Stock would be
available for issuance from time to time in the future for such corporate
purposes as financings, acquisitions, stock splits and stock dividends, as the
Board of Directors may deem appropriate, without the necessity of further
amendment to the Restated Articles of Incorporation and unless a particular
proposed transaction requires, under applicable law or otherwise, the approval
by shareholders, without the necessity of further action by shareholders.

YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSAL TO
AMEND ARTICLE VI OF THE AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION TO
INCREASE THE AUTHORIZED NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK TO 36,250,000 SHARES.

OTHER BUSINESS

The Board of Directors is not aware of any matters which will be presented at
the Special Meeting for action on the part of shareholders other than the
proposed increase in the authorized number of shares of Common Stock.

                                              By Order of the Board of Directors

                                                           /s/ E. William Savage
