Hi Tom I did receive the email sent by Julia on behalf of Berthe dated 29 Nov 2022. I quote: "If you wish a printed edition, which will be available, please get in touch with Julia Peled at icsbs.office@gmail.com and she will provide you with this facility and option. For those who want to proceed with print, the winter issue will be available for free (at ICSBS’s expense) but, thereafter, you will pay a fee of approximately $20 for the printed version plus postage." Should you need the full email message, I can forward it to you by private mail. Regards. Richard

Hi Tom
I fully agree with you.
I am in the same situation. I wrote to Julia about the printed copy of the Winter 2022 journal.
She suggests that I pay the 'outstanding' membership fee for 2022/2023 first, which is only due in April. If I remember correctly, it is usually due in June or July.
I am now seriously thinking about renewing my membership.
Regards.
Richard

Hi Bob,
I just posted in another thread before seeing your post here. The Winter 2022 issue should be sent out as part of the 2022 subscription, which offered 3 printed journals.
I do not recall seeing anything about "only upon request" from Julia. I will read through her emails again.
Tom
PS: I have checked all of Julia's emails of the last 10 months, and cannot find any reference to a printed journal only upon request. Do you have the date it was sent?

Sorry to come back to this topic again. I eagerly check my maibox daily, but have not yet received the Winter 2022 printed issue of the Journal, only the digital version.
I see from the ICSBS's Facebook page that they are already talking about the Spring 2023 issue of the Journal. Does this mean that we are not going to receive a Winter 2022 issue?
I fully appreciate that going forward from the April 2023 subscription we will only be offered the printed version as an optional extra. I don't agree with the policy, but will have to swallow it. However, the Winter 2022 issue is due as part of the 2022 subscription, which includes three printed journals.
Tom

Tom,
You cannot just wait for the hard copy of the latest Journal. According to Julia's e-mail that has the link to the digital copy, the printed copy of the latest Journal will be sent without charge only if it is requested.

Giovanni, I was just agreeing with Joey's previous post. I would date this bottle to 1820-1865. The next smaller bottle [61mm] features the Demon Queller and a kneeling demon. From a small auction in 2015.

Dear John, very nice bottle! Which is the reason for dating it to 1920? I can't date it for sure, but I thought that it should be older. Kind regards Giovanni
