NOTE: Arlington Auction in September - lots (or the cover sheets for bulky and heavy items) should be turned in at the next (August) meeting. This allows time to organize and advertise the lots ahead of the September meeting. As usual, you can just give Skip a list of the lots you will bring, but then you will have to number and cut the cover sheet for the sold lots.

Missing Scott Catalogs: we are missing the 2023 1B and 3B Scott catalogs. There are no sign out cards for these two volumes. If you have them, please contact Rich Hildebrandt (richhilde@hotmail.com) or Skip Ely so we can get them ready for the mail auction in October.

Meet'N'Eat

Ordinarily when we have an in-person meeting, we also have a MEET'N'EAT at an area restaurant, prior to the meeting. The group usually gathers between 5:15 and 5:30 pm, and we try to finish by 6:45 pm.

MEET'N'EAT is at David’s BBQ, 2224 W. Park Row, Arlington, (817) 261-9998, beginning about 5:00 P.M.
