Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Get out your 2010 calendar! The
dates have been set for the 2010 Benefit Auction- our 37th. It will
be held on April 9th and 10th, 2010, at the GMP Local 244
Union Hall on 350 Hudson Ave in Newark, OH. Auctioneer Craig Connelly and his
crew will again auction off all of our wonderful glass!
It is quite early and Walter informed we have received
several consignments at the Museum so far. We also have some glass to put in
which came in as a result of HCA policy on taking consignments of member’s
collections. (If you want to know more about the policy please see the link at
the bottom of the Auction page on the Museum web site or contact me). Remember, the deadline for sending in
your consignment and/or donation for us to sell for the benefit of the Museum
is January 15, 2010. Remember,
each member can consign 40 lots. There is no limit on lots you can donate nor
do they count against the 40 lot maximum that you can consign. If you or
someone you know is coming to the Museum or the general Columbus-Newark area,
you might have them bring your glass to the Museum so you will know it gets
there safely and also eliminate shipping costs.
I would encourage you to visit the Museum and see the Museum decorated
in its entire splendor on December 5th at the Open House or just
any time you are in the area. What a
sight! Oops - got off subject.... If you
need a packing list or contract, please follow these links: Contract Packing List. Remember, please send TWO
contacts with your glass and I’ll return a signed copy to you. Please also
remember to put a spare packing list in each box of glass – make our volunteer
catalogers happy!
If you have questions about the auction or you wish
to volunteer to help, please contact me at 937.372.7166 or by e-mail at masdgs@aol.com. See you at the museum on December 5th for the
Christmas Open House! Happy Heisey Hunting! ©
