As part of our Victorian Hats and Tea fund-raiser, Historic Fairview Cemetery has a silent auction. These items will be displayed and attendees can make bids. Please consider joining in on the fun! This year, we have porcelain figurines from Avon. The "Avon "Mrs. Albee Award" was a porcelain figurine given to top-selling Avon representatives as a recognition of their achievement, inspired by Avon's first representative, Mrs. P.F.E. Albee in 1886, This porcelain figurines, often depicting a Victorian-era lady, are sought after by Avon collectors. Can't stay for our entire event? Don't worry, you need not to be present at the end of the bidding period. You will be contacted if you are final winner. (fb)
