Dear List Members,

It is our pleasure to announce the completion of a limited series "Garza
Wrecking Ball Impact Artifact Display Kit." The idea behind these kits is
to help offset the enormous costs involved in building a portable display of
the bedroom that was destroyed in the Garza home by a meteorite from the
Park Forest fall. As most of you have heard the Garza stone is the largest
of the hammers weighing in at a hefty 2,721 plus grams. It is also the most
famous of all the stones that fell in the Park Forest suburb on 3-26-03.
The material in these kits consists of fragments of items that were damaged
by the meteorite plus a micromount of the actual meteorite. It was decided
that these items were not needed for the construction of the display because
they are too small to keep track of when the display is on loan. Like the
group that financed the rebuilding of the Liberty Bell 7 space capsule by
selling unneeded components we are selling small specimens to transform the
Garza bedroom into an interpretive display that will most likely debut in
Tucson 2004. After this it will go on a world tour.

200 kits were assembled and include the following components:
1.) Piece of glass from window that was broken by meteorite
2.) Piece of ceiling joist from attic broken by meteorite
3.) Piece of venetian blind that was split down the center by meteorite
4.) Piece of ceiling sheet-rock punched out by meteorite
5.) Micro specimen of actual Garza Stone from 24.6g fragment found in house
6.) 5" X 6" Riker display box
7.) Certificate of Authenticity
8.) Copy of Affidavit signed by Noe Garza
9.) Built-in images of Robert Garza's bedroom

These kits are serialized from 1of 200 to 200 of 200 and when they are gone
that is it. The first thirteen have already been spoken for.

We are selling these kits at a very reasonable price of only $89.95 each.
For List Members only there will be no shipping charge. A lot of thought
and effort went into designing these mini displays. We have seen
micro-mounts without artifacts sell consistently for over $50.00 making this
an exceptional value. Our goal is to offset 2/3rds the cost of building
the large display. You can get your hands on this limited offering by

BONUS
Be sure to check out this week's auctions on eBay because we are offering
many rare specimens that are extras from the merging of two collections. We
are running around 150 auctions representing over 100 different meteorite
falls and finds, some so rare they are impossible to find anywhere else.
