2011 Summary</U></B></div> <div> <B>The 2011 event at East Peoria, Illinois, entailed a Friday night Annual Business Meeting, a moment of silence for members that have passed away, a great social, silent auction, room hopping buying-selling-trading, 50/50 tickets to win convention prizes, and the award of the COIPS 28th  annual commemorative.  Saturday entailed three very interesting and creative show displays, a breath taking Rare Items table, the COIPS Show and Sale, and an in-depth and most informative seminar about pottery fraud and fake stoneware by Mr. Larry Birks. We received a great banquet dinner that evening, followed by a very professionally digitally presented Powerpoint Slide Production by Tom O'Hare, and the evening major auction. Each day a large selection of stoneware was offered for sale by show dealers, and several very rare and unusual stoneware items appeared for sale, both in room sales and the Saturday morning sale and confab, and acquired at the evening auction.  Many fine pieces of Illinois stoneware found new homes. Best of all, it was another great time for the membership to meet and visit and at a terrific facility, the Stoney Creek Inn. Special thanks is given to all current and past board members for all their hard work and dedication to the Collectors of Illinois Pottery and Stoneware. </B></div> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B>Saturday SHOW & SALE 2011</B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="97c17740.jpg" border=0 width="279" height="372" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">  <IMG SRC="97eeb700.jpg" border=0 width="491" height="368" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="980912d0.jpg" border=0 width="401" height="301" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">  <IMG SRC="982722f0.jpg" border=0 width="370" height="303" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="9848a180.jpg" border=0 width="394" height="280" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">  <IMG SRC="98674170.jpg" border=0 width="372" height="279" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="992781a0.jpg" border=0 width="376" height="282" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">  </B><B><IMG SRC="9957b1c0.jpg" border=0 width="379" height="284" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="9978b290.jpg" border=0 width="395" height="297" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"> <IMG SRC="999912d0.jpg" border=0 width="401" height="301" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="99b51c10.jpg" border=0 width="337" height="449" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">  <IMG SRC="99d55c70.jpg" border=0 width="341" height="455" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="99f87250.jpg" border=0 width="391" height="293" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"> <IMG SRC="9a18b280.jpg" border=0 width="395" height="296" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="9b48c100.jpg" border=0 width="396" height="528" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0">  </B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>PAST  CONVENTIONS</B></div> <div> <B>2010</B></div> <div> <B><IMG SRC="83cbff70.jpg" border=0 width="703" height="503" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="83ebff70.jpg" border=0 width="703" height="503" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="840b5ef0.jpg" border=0 width="693" height="495" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="8429add0.jpg" border=0 width="666" height="477" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="8488cd30.jpg" border=0 width="652" height="467" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="84995d80.jpg" border=0 width="661" height="472" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="84b87d00.jpg" border=0 width="647" height="464" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="84dde9d0.jpg" border=0 width="478" height="669" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <B>Saturday SHOW & SALE 2009</B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="6abbd1a0.jpg" border=0 width="701" height="538" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="6adb3ee0.jpg" border=0 width="691" height="494" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="6afadea0.jpg" border=0 width="685" height="490" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B>DISPLAY  #1  Bowls  "Mix with Us" WINNER</B></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="6b1a6e50.jpg" border=0 width="678" height="485" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <bR> <div> <B><IMG SRC="6b3aeec0.jpg" border=0 width="686" height="492" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></div> <div> <B>DISPLAY #
