It
is Labor Day weekend with rain here in New England. The perfect
opportunity to work on cup plates. I apologize for the long
delay between Newsletters, but time has slipped away and hobbies
have had to take a back seat while business needs were attended
to.
If
you have the time to write something of interest for future
articles, we would appreciate your help. Perhaps you had a visit
to a Museum or found a special cache' of goodies at an Antique
Shop. Perhaps you have questions or answers for the Forum, that
will allow your fellow collectors to add their two cents.
Anything
that you can do to help us communicate monthly will take the
pressure off and add knowledge and enjoyment as we all try to
improve our collections and keep this site nonprofit. Just drop
us an email Cupplates@aol.com
We
are also trying to reach Cup Plate Collectors that do not have
Internet access. If you know of fellow collectors that we can
mail our newsletter to, please drop us an email with their name
and address.
Thank
you,
Dave McDonnell
