The 2012 combined OSCAR/NESOSC meeting will be held November 10 in Meriden, CT. Lesley Solkoske and her committee have a wonderful program planned including a dig (for those sufficiently adventurous) at the site of the former Meriden Flint Glass Company.

Thanks to all who sent kind and caring messages and cards on the passing of my mother. Your prayers and thoughtfulness are sincerely appreciated.
A very special thanks to members of MOSS for the beautiful Lord's Prayer throw. What a special reminder that she is now at peace. Sue

@Catie - I, for one, could not have enjoyed last weekend's meeting more! The meeting, speaker, houses, collections, weather, food, friends, OYSTERS were all PERFECTION! I don't know how the caterers served those beautiful meals for the amount of money we paid. But I'm glad they did! The meeting was wonderful! Let's do it again in 2013! LOL

Hello all, Nina and I have decided to do an article on the newer Russian salts. By newer, I mean those that do not appear in our book. These would be the little three-legged (ball feet) ones made in the 20s or 30s and those newer ones. If anyone in our group has certain knowledge of the dates, etc. of these salts, please send that along with all the pictures of your Russian salts from this era. We do not need pictures of those far more expensive ones that are already in our book. I am not sure that I am even describing those salts very well because we did not have those to show John Atzbach. He was kind enough to go over the pictures that I had of the photos of the Russian salts we had from various collections. None of us had photos of the more recent ones.
Thanks for your help. Please send info and photos to me at sandyjzyk@hotmail.com and copy Nina's email too if you have it.
Sandy

To all salt sellers from the recent OSCAR/CASC meeting - it sounds like OSCAR owes someone $25 for the OSCAR door prize, so if you can let me know where to send the check (serious inquiries only, please - LOL!), I will get that out.
Thanks!!

Wow - what a fabulous weekend and OSCAR/CASC meeting on the eastern shore of VA. Thank you to all who were responsible for the planning. we all had a wonderful time - the Friday night and Saturday programs were informative - the meetings included elections - congrats to the slate of officers for both clubs - and the Saturday afternoon clam bake was delicious! Oh yes - and lots of salts changed hands during buy and sell. Sure wish you all could have joined us!

Rod, you may be deluged with covered trinket boxes and sugars if ebay is any indication. Of course I trust you to tell the difference. Good luck.

I'm writing an article for the National Newsletter on covered glass salts. If you have any in your collection, especially if they are not shown in either H&J or Coddington, please contact me (rcelser@aol.com)as I would like to be as comprehensive as possible. Thanks!
