ANNOUNCING

We are pleased to be able to tell you that David Winter will be visiting us again.

We will be participating in David’s last big visit, deemed…

David’s Special Event piece for 2002 is entitled " Limestone Brook".
It has a retail price of $70. In addition to that, we know that there will be
one more cottage, a Grand Finale .
The details on that final piece are not yet available, but should be very soon.

There are also three new mid-year introductions:

DWD1202 The Pineapple Pit $ 90.00 (The Eccentrics Collection)
DWD1203 The Silk Emporium $ 100.00 (The Eccentrics Collection)
DWD1204 The Labyrinth $ 180.00 (The General Range)

These pieces should be here for this event. We have most of the pieces in the current range in stock; a reminder, we have only until November 15^th to order any cottages or castles that you may need to complete a collection or group. We hope that you are able to join us in saying "so long, for now, and fare thee well..."

Once again, we will attempt to eliminate some of the confusion that often accompanies an event of this magnitude by establishing a Queue Card list. If you are certain (or even fairly certain) that you will be attending the event, simply contact us via phone, fax, email, or even US mail, and let us know. We’ll assign you a Queue Card Number, which will be your place in line. We would ask that you limit yourselves to One Cottage per person in line. (Should there be ample time, you are welcome to retrieve others from your vehicle).

One last note...we would like to offer you some special purchase opportunities. Of course, we will gladly hold these to be autographed in the event that you are unable to join us on October 6, 2002.

We hope this will help to make David’s visit a memorable one for all of us.
Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, and seeing you in October.
