  1. I was able to update the posting by adding the names of Ann Donnell Smith’s Purple Ribbon that was also the Best Intermediate collection of 5, and contained the best intermediate Hot Chilli 2O-O. Click on the original post to see the names. My apologies to Ann Donnell Smith. After the paper became dry I was able to make out the names with a little help from Daffseek.

    The Gold Ribbon, Kwantan 3 exhibited by Anne Donnell Smith was from her winning Bozievich Award. Not the Quinn as I first stated.
    The best Historic Collection of 5 was exhibited by Dan Greenwood. Not Don Cation as I first stated.
