Dear Meteorite List Members,

With the Tucson show less than six weeks away, we'd like to invite you to
preview some of the items in Lang's second annual No-Reserve Meteorite
Auction. We will have over sixty meteorite lots on offer during the Tucson
show, and many of them have hand-painted Huss numbers and are accompanied by
historic American Meteorite Laboratory labels. A number of lots also come
with rare Ward's labels.

This is a no-reserve silent auction, with all lots opening at one penny!
There is NO BUYER'S PREMIUM, so what you bid is what you pay.

Stop by the R.A. Langheinrich Meteorites - Lang's Fossils room any time
during the Tucson show to view the lots, place your bids, and join us in
some refreshment. No registration is necessary, and you can bid any time
from January 28, 2004 until the auction closes at 4 PM sharp, Saturday,
February 7, 2004.
