 VF&CJ 2001 Convention Pictures:
The Auction
| | The auction to benefit VF&CJ Club's color newsletter was one of the highlights at the Convention. David Enochian did the honors as auctioneer. As previously observed at the Pittsburgh VF&CJ Mini Convention in 2000, David's popularity is undisputed. All jewelry and other items were donated by Club Members. Although total raised is not for publication, the final sum did hover in five figures (without cents) for c:a 225 lots. Photos will open in a new window. Simply Close the window at upper right X when viewed. Some photos are quite large. Byte size is given under each. |
