For one night only, Tuesday, November 17, international performing and recording artist, cabaret and jazz singer, actress, and producer Maggie Worsdale brings her one-woman show to Riverton Free Library as she becomes Martha Dandridge Custis Washington.
Be there before 7pm, and we will have on display the mugs mentioned in the post of Nov. 9.
When I found out that the RFL was having its usual Sunday afternoon used book sale in the basement I decided to set up a card table just inside our new space and offer those mugs for sale.
I had about 28 mugs, mostly all different prototype designs I was trying out featuring vintage images from our extensive archive. You can make out a Riverside, a Moorestown, and a Palmyra mug amongst the Riverton cups.
I sold ten and got an order for 14. The result was encouraging enough that I will go back next Sunday and try again.
I can’t say who came or what they bought.
Let’s just say Santa has sworn me to secrecy.
I ordered another bunch more today, but delivery is not expected until the end of November.
One of them will be this one featuring a beautiful watercolor by artist Rosemary Hutchins that we gave out at our Second Annual Daniel Campbell Riverton Awards Night last April.
What would you like to see put on a mug? – JMc
