This is an AUCTION of Pieces of History
Parts of the work of a woman beloved by Cyberscribes
to benefit

THE DANCING LETTERS YOUNG ADULT SCHOLARSHIP FUND


We hope we are offering a fair representation

of the works of AnnE Van Tassell
and a way for you to have her work in your collection
or to gift it to someone you care about.

PLEASE SCROLL ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM TO SEE ALL THE ITEMS



FAIR WARNING:

The photography was difficult to accomplish
and we apologize that the photos have a blue cast of varying densities
Use your artistic eye to envision it gone
and remember that every computer monitor has different color idiosyncrasies

Many of the pieces are color reproductions and are not on archival paper
but each is lovely and most were hand finished by AnnE

I currently have only one of each print and one of each garden jewel for Auction
There are multiples of some of the Wild Women and etched pins
but as was the uniqueness of AnnE, there are no two identical
I will do my best to make certain you get the exact WildWoman and etched pins shown
Cards may be a bit battered


If you want something, get into the bidding fast




PLEASE BID SOON, OFTEN and GENEROUSLY

I hope this auction
and the growing of the DANCING LETTERS YOUNG ADULT SCHOLARSHIP FUND
will be an honoring or one of AnnE's last messages





so ...
If you have issues about the way this auction is being run ~or anything I say or do
Please contact me immediately and directly by email or phone

Please don't allow me or my actions ~ or the way we designed the system
to become a reason not to support the cause.
