Here are some pictures of the wonderful exhibits that were displayed at our 2009 Show & Sale.  We had many fine exhibits with mostly a Western or Central New York theme.  Dick Kelley won the BEST OF SHOW plaque and PEOPLE'S CHOICE award for his stunning display of the Clyde Glass Works: Bottles from Beyond, the Michigan Connection.  Dick's display was worthy of being in a museum, with maps, enlarged photographs, and information on Upper Michigan and New York's Clyde Glass Works.  John Pastor equally impressed us with his display of G.W. Merchant Bottles, Lockport, NY and his display earned him the award for MOST EDUCATIONAL.  Congratulations and THANK YOU to all our exhibitors for showing us your wonderful collections!!
