I haven't been to a NAN show in many years, but thanks to the generous sharing of photographers and fellow hobbyists like Heather Morton-Abounader I can have a 'virtual NAN' right here in my office. If you have a moment check out her 2014 NAN galleries:

You can do this by sending me payment in the form of PayPal in full or in part, on or before August 7th. You can also send snail mail payments, in full or in part, postmarked on or before August 7th. Or email me letting me know you want to order a Marwari (or two, or three!) on or before August 7th. I happily accept time payments, in whatever amount and whatever frequency works for you, just let me know when you place your order. The mini Marwari's webpage with handy PayPal buttons is here
