[GBW] Registration...

[Betsy Eldridge <BPEldridge@xxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone...

When last heard from, Alicia reported that the Centennial registration was 
still under 200, which I find absolutely amazing...  

Many of us have been working overtime on this for so long, and have met 
universally with such enthusiasm and cooperation...  I am totally wowed by what 
will be available...  Never before in my 45 years in the field has there been the 
opportunity to see so much splendid, breath taking material of every 
sort...and probably never again in the foreseeable future....  Once long ago I asked 
Bernard Middleton if there was any hope for bookbinding in America.  He frankly 
answered that he didn't think so as there wasn't the opportunity to see 
enough good work over here...  This is that opportunity...  It will be a shame for 
so many to miss it...

Encourage everyone you know to come...  including yourself.  Find a way.  
Make it happen.  Rob a bank.  Register before Tuesday.  You won't regret it.....  
 And by the way, Bernard Middleton was one of the first to register...

Betsy
