The first 10 or so of the Wisconsin Point pieces arrived a few weeks ago at HL which forwarded them on to Dave.
And so when the drawing was conducted to match the numbered pieces with those who had ordered by March 30, it was possible to have the top winner (#1) receive his/her piece first.
All others will have to wait until the container arrives in Maine -- which should happen in May.
The edition of 500 is over half-sold out as of now.
Congratulations to Max who has managed to defy all odds by winning the Participate and Post contest for March as well. Hope you've been buying lottery tickets, Max.

Congratulations Max
When it comes to rarity and value the #1 is the most rare and valuable of all limited Editions, even more than the Artist Proofs. There may be 12 to 15 for the Younger limited editions and I believe it is now around 4 or 5 for the Don Devine Limited editions. And there is only one #1. You will have the most valuable WP exclusive except for the paint sample of course.

My mail lady delivered my WI Point CF Exclusive today--NUMBER 1--Yes,I couldn't believe it!
When I saw the box I said to myself that I didn't realize that Dave had started shipping them out. Well, I realized why I got it so soon when I saw it was THE winner and definitely a keeper. Maybe Dave will be shipping out other low number winners to some other lucky CF members soon.
Thanks to all who had a part in getting this sharp piece produced and sold to produce needed funds.
Yes Dave, it's been an interesting and exciting weekend! (For those of you who missed this post yesterday on page 1 of this thread.) And yes, I'm twice as surprised to have won the Participate and Post too! Thanks to all who make this monthly drawing available. I haven't been this lucky for several years now. I'd better start buying lottery tickets now for awhile although the odds of winning are usually much worse.

People just wouldn't believe me when I said someone was going to have an interesting weekend. I think Max's weekend qualifies as interesting.
There are actually 12 WP pieces in the country. The #7 & 8 pieces are currently in the mail to those lucky folks. Hopefully they will post and share their winnings. I will follow with a couple more in the mail every couple of days. Kind of draw out the anticipation to see if a box shows up on your doorstep.
Congrats, Max. Enjoy your new addition.

Non-registered Forum visitors could have ordered.. Also we took the paint sample to our first club meeting of the year and they could have ordered from Dave without even being on the Internet!!

Since it's a CF exclusive, I thought only CF members could order before 3/31. Rich, Sorry if I thought your post was a bit confusing. Since nobody posted they received the #7 or #8 (yet), there is still a chance in todays mail.

I can say that one of the recipients is a little tied up with other matters at the present time. One is a long time member, but doesn't post too often. The pair that should have arrived today, one person is not a member, the other has posted but not too much. Mailed out the last pair today, they should arrive at their new homes on Friday. One of those folks is definitely a member and the other is not a member.
Stan, a large number of people who purchased ELLs were not CF members. It would not have been fair to keep them from having the opportunity to obtain a low number since that had supported our previous projects.

Although there wasn't anything in my mail today either, I will admit that it's a lot of fun getting them this way. It's nice to have the anticipation of coming home from work and the "what if" of a package possibly waiting in the mail.

Dave, No problem here, it was just me confused with who was able to purchase before and after 3/31. I just want to see every piece sold!!! Congrats to all those who get a WI CF piece this week.

Well you can imagine my surprise when I arrived home on Friday after work and Patti asked me "were you expecting something from Dave Hannum?" and low and behold there's a little box there containing Wisconsin Point #11! What a great little piece and perfect size!. Another great job by Harbour Lights! Needless to say it's resting comfortably on display now.
Certainly wasn't expecting it this soon that's for sure

Mike, you don't know how much I wanted to post a "dig" after you posted that. Glad it arrived safely. Enjoy it.
I also heard from the person who received the #7 piece (not a CF member) who was also surprised and excited to have their piece.
If you have not ordered your piece yet, you are missing out on a really great HL.

Hilari, my policy is to not identify people or the numbers they receive. Some prefer to keep that to themselves, which I respect. Of course, it is always our hope that folks who receive the lowest numbers will share their excitement at receiving them.
Of the three pieces remaining to be identified, one is a CF member who does not post too often, the other two are not members.

I'm usually not this lucky. That's why I usually put one of my daughter names in drawings. They seem to have more of a lucky streak at least when it comes to Harbour Lights events.
This one is really special to me to say the least.
