L.H. Selman Ltd. We put an invoice in the mail to you last week. If you haven't received it by now it should turn up any second. Thanks for staying on top of things. We want to get your weight off to you as soon as possible!

    • Patty MacDonald Thank you, Alexis, so much for the message and phone call. I love L. H. Selman!!! I hope things are going well with wrapping up the latest auction. If I ever make it back to Chicago, I will certainly stop in to see your new location and all the paperweights.

Mitch and I attended Wheaton's 2010 Paperweight Festival this year and, boy, are we glad we did! Even though the timing of our current auction didn't allow us to come as dealers, we still felt we left Wheaton enriched by the friendships we made. ...

    • Marti Selman Enjoyed the pictures and your report of the weekend! Brings back many memories, and I know you enjoyed yourself as much as we always have. That was a great shot of the Great Kontes brothers with Rick Ayotte!

L.H. Selman Ltd. Now, it would be misleading of me not to point out that the name was not actually chosen in my honor, and that it was chosen even before we all joined forces at L.H. Selman. Nevertheless, my obviously insatiable ego reasons that by the time Alexis Marie arrived, Mitch had spent most of the pregnancy working in very cl...ose quarters with me and at least I didn’t cause him to go sour on his original resolve.

L.H. Selman Ltd. Mitch and Colleen kept the name completely secret during the entire pregnancy. As a joke, I began referring to the baby as Alexina, implying that they should name her in my honor. Soon everyone was referring to the awaited package as Alexina. Mitch and Colleen must have had to stifle many giggles listening to all the nonsense; the secret name was Alexis Marie.

    L.H. Selman Ltd. You all know by now, I hope, that Mitch and Colleen Clark have a new little girl, born on March 25th. She is perfect and Colleen her usual radiant self. Mitch is positively aglow and aflutter and agog at his beautiful creation whose looks he always generously attributes to his beautiful wife, though I’m quite sure I ...see a touch of Clark nose. I can’t wait to tell you about her name ….

      L.H. Selman Ltd. Mitch and Ben will be in Wheaton from May 13th through the 15th for the 2010 Paperweight Fest, presented by Wheaton Arts and the Delaware Valley PCA. So, if you spot them in the crowd, two young Clark brothers with easy smiles and lots of enthusiasm, please approach, grab a hand and start shaking it until you rattle a name out of its owner.

      L.H. Selman Ltd. A charming customer of ours, Dr. Karl-Hans Knudsen of Germany, tells us that a significant portion of his very large paperweight collection will be on display at the Glass Museum Hentrich in Düsseldorf from the beginning of May until the end of summer. Among many other wonderful treasures, I believe the collection is very heavily represented by French antiques.

        L.H. Selman Ltd. Suzanne leaves today for Buenos Aires! She'll be just as available to you as always, but I believe she'll be dressed in things like thongs and sarongs and fruit basket headware. Should you experience difficulty with her enunciation on the telephone, try asking her to remove the rose from between her teeth.

        L.H. Selman Ltd. We’re hard at work here putting together the spring catalogs. Ben is fettered to the photography studio from which he is only released for the occasional sandwich, and Mitch and I spend our days checking and double checking spreadsheets for grammatical errors and description imprecisions. As free-roaming agents, we h...ave sandwiches whenever we want. Do you all have your catalog subscriptions updated?

          L.H. Selman Ltd. Larry and Marti spent a week at L. H. Selman Ltd. Chicago at the end of January. For Ben and Mitch and me it was a happy reunion with our friends and mentors, and a welcome chance to hear their thoughts on our progress to date. For Larry and Marti the experience must certainly have been somewhat surreal, since the ne...w gallery is a kind of transposition of the old, created, as it is, with the Santa Cruz cabinets.
