SaleTalk: Notes from the Jury
One of the duties of the Jury Committee is to define the sale rules and clarify the aspects that display good workmanship.
To keep members informed of these rules and quality guidelines, we will be publishing brief articles in the newsletter which elaborate on specific
points of submitted items. It is our hope that we will assist participants with proper preparations of items for
the annual sale. These articles will also be available on the web page as they are written.
