Another 1st Place Win!

I just checked the results of the 2010 AFDCS Cachet Makers Contest... and I am very happy to see that my 2010 Scouting "Be Prepared" design has won 1st Place in the Hand Drawn/Hand Painted Category

This design is still available to anyone who is interested in placing an order.  They will be sold on a first come - first served basis.  Of course, as with all of my cachets they will be added to the Schedule and will be painted when I get to them. 

Right now there are 120 covers waiting for paint so the wait will be over six months.  If you look on my "2010 Covers" web page you will see that I have many cover blanks canceled with many scouting stamp combinations that could get this design or one similar... or a completely different design.

Just let me know if you are interested in adding this or any other Emrick Cachet design to your collection!

Thanks again for your continued interest and support... I'm having a great time knowing that my designs are a part of many fine collections across the world.

It's Been Awhile Since my Last Entry...

It's been about eight months since I last posted an update on this blog page.  It has been an eight months of support by my many collector friends that continue to place orders and wait with great amounts of patience as they wait for their covers to come up on the long schedule list!

Not a lot is "new" concerning Emrick Cachets.  I still put a lot of time into each cachet that I paint and I still "intend" to work more hours on the covers each day... some days I do put long hours into it but other days there are many other things that pull me away from the art table.  This M.O. does keep me from doing many of each year's issues that I would love to do and I'm trying to think of a way to possibly work "new issues" into the schedule. 

Of course the best solution would be to have more of you place orders for the issues as they come out!  Again, I DO thank all of you who have my work inlcuded in your collections and I hope that many others will join the growing number of collectors that I count as good friends and customers. 

Let me know if you have any questions or would like to place some of your favorite stamp issue FDCs onto the list!

Price Change...
As I stated in the October Newsletter I must make a slight adjustment in my pricing.  I hope that everyone's interest in my work will continue as the increase is very slight.  I spend between 3 and 5 hours on each cachet and feel that my cachets are among those that are considered "high quality" hand painted covers that should increase in value over time.  The new pricing goes into effect on November 1st... anyone who may read this and place an order prior to midnight 10/31 will get the pre-increase pricing.

Too Busy to publish September Newsletter!
Well, I hope that at least a few of those who receive my monthly newsletter took notice... but there was no September 2010 Emrick Cachets Newsletter.  After the big news of my Winning First Place in the AFDCS contest I guess there just wasn't much new happening within my cachet painting world to share.  I continue working hard to whittle down the size of the Schedule List... but happily y'all keep adding more to the list just as fast as I can paint them!  Again, I certainly do appreciate the patience of those placing orders with me.  I'm looking forward to doing many of the new 2010 issues and actually have many already on the Schedule... so, keep those orders coming in and sit back and wait... we'll get 'em done before you know it!

FIRST PLACE - 2009 AFDCS Cachet Makers Contest!

I was informed last Saturday that my entry for the 2009 American First Day Cover Society's "Cachet Makers Contest" won First Place in the Hand Drawn Hand Painted Category.  The entry design is "The Raven" for the 2009 Edgar Allen Poe Issue... that is shown on my Home Page and the Available Now Page of this website.

Last year my "The Year of the Rat Pack" came in Second Place for the same category... and I am VERY pleased to have now received my second recognition from this prestegious organization.

All I can say is... "Aw Shucks... 'twernt nothin"   :0)
