Crumbs from my jar . . .
This is a short newsletter, the first of the month came much sooner than i expected.
I was planning/hoping
it wouldn't appear for at least another week or so. Will make it up with a special edition newsletter
around the
middle of the month.
until next time,

~NEWEST HALLOWEEN JAR~
Take a look at this new jar that showed up at my house this week. So cute! It's not a commercially made
jar, but you couldn't tell it by looking or feeling it. Very well done and fits in perfectly with
my other black cats. For now it's just shown on the forums (scroll down) but it wll be added to the
main Halloween cookie jar image gallery soon.

~WHAT'S YOUR HOLY GRAIL JAR?~
As I mentioned last month, I was bummed out that I missed one of my Holy Grail jars
that was offered on a BIN on eBay back in August.
So I'm sharing my Holy Grails in the forums, just in case you know of one or can help. Meanwhile, please share the jars
you've been looking for too. Who knows someone may have one they're willing to sell.. Can't hurt, right?

From Last Issues:
~YES YOU READ TO THE BOTTOM~
Still waiting to hear from Bunny Atkins to send her prize, meanwhile Rich and Patricia's prize will
be sent early next week.
~FAKES ON EBAY~
This problem has been ongoing for as many years as eBay has been in existence. I know when I bought my very
first jar on eBay, a California Original Count, I was worried it was a fake until I actually had the jar in my hands. There is an ongoing thread on the Collectibles Forums about cookie jar fakes. Brian is doing a terrific job with it, but it would be great if others could pop in and add their sightings as well. OR if you have a question stop by and ask a question - we'll do our best to help out.
