[Leica] For Sale: Your LUG yearbook 2014 (Ted Grant)

[hopsternew at gmail.com (Geoff Hopkinson)]

Dear Ted, thank you for your kind words and phone call when you received
your copies. It was very rewarding for me to be able to acknowledge your
work and contributions in our book on behalf of the whole list. Tina's
editorial and the portraits of you from the LUG made that possible.

I think that the book looks great too with many excellent photos and a good
variety as well. On a personal note I was especially pleased to see that
the majority of contributed images were made with Leica equipment, in 2014,
Leica Camera's Centennial year. The LU of LUG ;-)

For those curious, thus far 52 copies (including all versions) have been
purchased and we have raised more than $300 for Jim's charity thus far. The
donation added to the (8) eBook versions purchased is higher than that for
the print versions.
As soon as that money is received by me I shall transfer it to Jim to give
to Project H.O.M.E

I have several areas of experience with this one so far to pass to whoever
the next editor may be.


Cheers
Geoff
