<DIV>I came across this on an ren fair newsgroup, and thought I should pass it
on. The theft occured in Calontir, but one can never tell where stuff will turn
up. Please spread the word. Thanks.</DIV>

<DIV>Greetings!<BR><BR>My name is David Backlin known to the SCA world as "Edrei
the Quiet". I<BR>am the proprietor of a business called "All the Trimmings"
which sells<BR>costuming trims and ribbons, decorative buttons and other
miscellaneous<BR>items to the SCA and other historical reenactors.<BR><BR>On the
evening of January 22, 2001, someone broke into my van and stole<BR>an
assortment of trims and buttons as well as a display table.<BR>Strangely enough,
it was mostly the metallic trim that were taken.<BR><BR><BR>I have compiled a
list of items taken. Please help me be on the lookout<BR>for these items. They
could show up at an SCA function, a Ren-Faire, a<BR>gaming convention or even on
a street corner selling out of the back of<BR>a vehicle.<BR><BR>Here is a list
of the missing items:<BR><BR>2 plastic totes of trims, mostly metallics, but
some non-metallics and<BR>as many as 70 spools. Priced from $1.25 to $2.75 per
yard with an<BR>approximate retail value of $4500.<BR><BR>1 folding Wal-Mart
camp table<BR><BR>1 wooden, shield shaped sign with dark stain and "All the
Trimmings"<BR>written in red letters.<BR><BR>2 small and one medium sized
plastic box of buttons with an approximate<BR>retail value of $500.<BR><BR>1
milk crate of pewter and glass tankards with an approximate retail<BR>value of
$100.<BR><BR><BR>I am offering a $300 reward for the return of these items in
good<BR>condition.... NO QUESTIONS ASKED!<BR><BR>If you see anything suspicious
or have any questions, please contact<BR>me.<BR><BR>Thank you very much for your
time!<BR><BR>David Backlin (aka "Edrei the Quiet")<BR><A
