Subject: Stretchers
In my "Open Letter to Conservator's Stretcher TM Clients" of 20 November, 2001, I presented for your information a general outline of events relating to the insolvency of Wingrill Ltd., the authorized manufacturer of the Conservator's Stretcher TM line of products. At that time, no suitable manufacturer was found to take up the mantle to continue authorized production. Many dealers and distributors, artists, conservators, restorers, museums and art galleries contacted me personally to inquire about the future of the Conservator's Stretcher TM. In response, I requested your patience to await a resolution of these disruptive events. It gives me great pleasure to reintroduce to you the Conservator's Stretcher TM product line in conjunction with the founding of a remarkable new company, Chaloria Wood Arts, Inc. I have entered into a licensing agreement which gives Chaloria Wood Arts, Inc. the sole rights to manufacture, market, and distribute the Conservator's Stretcher TM line of products in Canada and the United States. This company offers a wealth of manufacturing experience with two primary goals in mind: producing the highest quality products with the best possible pricing, and providing exceptional customer service. I will be directly involved with Chaloria Wood Arts, Inc. in decision making processes relating to all aspects of the Conservator's Stretcher TM product line, as well as ongoing research and development of this and other art related products. We are now offering a choice of basswood or eastern white pine stretchers. However, and perhaps more importantly, it is the original and authentic product that you can be used and presented with confidence. If you have any questions or orders, please call Gord Gray of Chaloria Wood Arts Inc., at 613-475-6561. Or please feel free to contact me directly. Please accept my many thanks for your patience and considerations, and I extend to you this heartfelt invitation in the hope that the continued success of the Conservator's Stretcher TM will serve and enhance our mutual benefit and professional endeavours.
