Jordan
Fountain News! One of
Roman's very observant dealers has pointed out an interesting tidbit
about the Jordan Fountains. Each fountain base and top had etched
into the resin, a number. It appears this is a production number
used to identify the top and base which fits together as a unit.
We have seen them ranging from #94 to over #2000. This is
very interesting and means that they have unknowingly
(apparently) produced a numbered edition of the
fountains. Perhaps with the ability to tell the production sequence.
If our suspicions are correct, this is a very interesting collectors
piece, in addition to being a lovely fountain. Check yours
out and let us know what you find. The numbers are inside the area
the pump fits into. The top and bottom numbers match.

Tour
news! Isn't it
fun to speculate about what will happen. I know we will all enjoy
seeing Gaylord Ho again. And we just cannot wait to find out when
and where. It feels like Christmas when I was a child and you could
not wait to find out what you had under the tree! So here is
a little news - there will be signings in June in addition to
the Rosemont show signing. Would it not be fun to do a tour
stop trip and have a group of collectors travel together across
America to each of the stops. We could be the Gaylord Groupies and
see lots of our great country too. More details soon.

Tour
News! Well Roman is being really quiet about the details of
a Gaylord Ho Tour in 2002. But there will be a tour. I don't
know when it will begin or when it will end but if I were in the
east or west, I would keep September open, there will definitely
be stops then. Perhaps it will start in June after the Rosemont
Show. Master Ho will be in the US for the show..... The tour will
consist of 12 stops and full details will be out soon, so stay tuned....
and happy collecting. Photos of the tour angel are not available
yet but it is most likely the one they previewed last year at the
collectors festival. You
can view the drawing by clicking here.

Hot
off the press - news about this years collectors shows.
Roman will not be showing
at the Navy Pier this year. They will be at Rosemont International
Gift and Collectible Expo on June 28th - 30th, 2002. AND YES, our
dearly beloved Gaylord Ho will be there also. For those of us who
have met him, it will be an honor to see him again and if you have
never had the opportunity, it is well worth the trip. He is not
only a very talented man, but a very gracious and humble man. Details
will be coming later, but put the dates on your calendar and start
making plans to attend. Hope to see all of you there. For more information
about the show visit their website
here. Roman does not have more information at this time,
but I will post it here as it becomes available, so check back often.
