On the theme of National Marquetry Exhibitions we thought you
may like to see a couple of small divertissements we hope you will
find interesting.
The first of these
features our Chairman Roy and his "claim to
fame" in a recent newspaper article concerning our 2007 National
Exhibition.

The second of these
divertissements concerns the thorny subject of National Exhibition
judging!
We happened across an article in a 1955 copy of the Marquetarian which
describes a judges interpretation of how he applies the rules when
judging at a National Exhibition.
We also found a "reply article" in the very next issue that gives the
counter view from a disgruntled reader who, unfortunately, preferred
to remain anonymous.
The articles are wonderful reading and shouldn't be missed, so, to
save you from missing them! - here is the link:
