Extraordinary Guatemalan huipil

[Amigos de los Animales]

Amigos de los Animales is auctioning an unusually beautiful Guatemalan huipil in excellent condition to raise funds for our sterilization, public education, and rescue activities. The huipil, shown in the first attachment, is elaborately smocked and embroidered on both sides, and is trimmed at the neck and shoulders with bright blue velvet.

As you know if you have seen our notices of our anniversary party on the February 15, we are auctioning many attractive articles and services to raise money for our sterilization, public education, and rescue activities. We are starting the bidding on some of the items now so that those who cannot attend will still have a chance to win them. (See attached announcement for details about the event.) If yours is the highest bid for an item prior to February 14 and no bids exceed it during the party, we will notify you that you have been the winner.

Prizes can be paid for in cash or by personal check from a Mexican, US, or Canadian bank. You may pay for and claim your prize at Calle Positos No. 96 (near the Alhondiga Museum) in the city of Guanajuato during the week of February 17-21 between 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Please call 732-4588 or 731-1955 for an appointment. If you do not claim your prize by 1:00 p.m. on Friday, February 21, the item will go to the next highest bidder. Prizes must be claimed in person. We cannot ship them.

If you have any questions, just let us know.

Once again, thank you for your generous support of Amigos.
