    Crumbs from my jar....

    Welcome to our new subscribers, all past newsletter are on the archive page on The Cookie Jar Net.

    Thank goodness this is a leap year, otherwise I would not be getting out my two newsletters in the month of February!

    A Big THANKS to all that helped Jim and his survey. He had over 200 replies in a very short time and most of them came from this list. The group will pick the winner and notify them by tomorrow evening. I'll also post the winner in the next newsletter. You guys are great!

    Because of many problems with dates, etc. The ACJA was having problems setting a firm date for the Cookie Jar Party 2004! The date has been firmed up and although it won't be as big as Portland, it should still be lots of fun. If you belong to the ACJA, more details will be in the monthly newsletter sent out tomorrow.

    It's another big change here on the newsletter. With the proliferation of Spam in our mailboxes and the Spam filters that many services are providing -- every issue I will have anywhere from 100 - 150 newsletters bouncing. That's a LOT! And it's not always the same ones, as I have found out with my own email program. At times my newsletter will be considered "junk" (HOW DARE THEY!!) and other times it will go through fine. So until the problem gets better, I'm going back to the all text format with a link to the HMTL version that I will have online. After a few months of trying this, it will be evaluated again. Here's the link to the online version, complete with pictures, etc:

    Today is the LAST day for Rich Clark's 15% off sale! See below on how to take part.

    Until next time,

    Reproductions/Fraud
    I am working on update for the Reproduction/Fraud index of articles and list. It would be terrific to have some help with this. If you try and keep up with this and would like to help, let me know! Reproductions/Fraud Index


    Auction Updates
  • A sampling of prices from the January 2004 auction are on line at: Auctions Prices Realized
  • The second auction of the Snyder jars will be April 17th at Kent Mickelson's in Freeman, Missouri.
    Mickelson Auctions
  • Bill Kasting will be holding an auction on April 24th with 400 jars from the collection of Barding and Dennis Smith.
    Kasting's Auction House
  • Iowa -- I've heard of another auction coming up in Iowa with 150 jars, but no dates yet.


  • eBay
    Do you purchase on eBay regularly? Is there a dealer that is just terrific or one that always offers great jars? Nominate someone as a terrific eBay seller -- if I was going to nominate someone it would be Bill C. for his always fantastic jars. I have no idea where he gets them all, but if he has a jar for sale -- it's a good one!
