I checked the trophy on the cover of this recent Review with the photo of BOSS with the trophy in his photo and it is STILL the same Von Stephanitz trophy .......but this one has the handle broken off. Really too bad. Sometimes things happen and sometimes you just can't fix the problem at the moment and have to do the best you can.....and I suspect that is what happened. The dog and the cover are beautiful!! When they took the photos of our Grand Victrix Mar Haven's Black Orchid....NO ONE had the V. S. trophy to even put IN the photo. It is a common looking picture as a result with no Von Stephanitz trophy at all in the picture. We ended up putting her moving photo on the cover because of that. Had the Von Sephanitz trophy arrived broken I would have GLADLY put the flowers closer on that side and still at least have that gorgeous Historic trophy in the picture of our new Grand Victrix!!!! <G> Regarding the Review.......what another disappointment of the size. It is so small now I have to say I agree with Kathaleen. I don't understand the volume of mistakes either for such a small magazine. ESPECIALLY with NATIONAL photos! Having had to complain about a couple of errors in the last few years I can say it never is quite the same to see a correction of your dog mis-named, completely missing or the wrong dog in the photo.... ( or..in our case all three problems over time....<G> ) and then to see the correction two or three months later. I suspect those of you who think it is "no big deal" have not had it happen yet. <G> Carolyn marhaven@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx www.Marhaven.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Terry Cochran To: inflight@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ; showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, February 10, 2010 11:11 AM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: The cover Someone was kind enough to send me a scan of the front cover. I doesn't seem to me that the handle needed to be removed to balance the photo. It looks to me like the trophy has been broken. I know them pretty well because i spent 2 weeks and went trough several jewelry cloths polishing it before the Oregon national. So the question is has the trophy been broken? If it has been I am sure it can be repaired. Terry ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2009.
