Dear AAJA Photojournalists,
This is the first call for your donation to the Photo Silent Auction. 100 percent of the money from auction go directly into the pocket of AAJA photo scholarships. Your donation is also tax deductible.
DEADLINE: JULY 1.
When selecting your print please consider what someone would purchase. Generally celebrity great feature, sports photos sell well. Our prediction is Jeremy Lin photo(s) will be the hot item this year.
Need one or two 11″ x 14″ prints to make this happen. The AAJA Silent Photo Auction is during the Unity convention in August in Las Vegas. Coming or not, you can donate.
Mailing & Print Instructions:
1. Print (IMAGE) must be 11 x 14 inches. Anything larger than this dimension will need to be cut to fit the frame size. Selected prints will be matted in 16” x 20” frame.
2. Please sign your autograph on the lower right corner of image with a silver metallic pen in dark areas and a black pen in lighter areas. The signature should be 1/2 inch above bottom of print and 1/2″ from right side of the print.
3. Include basic caption information of when and where you took the photo and description of photo on separate paper.
4. Enclose your name, affiliation, address, phone number and email address.
5. Do not send CD or email photo.
6. When mailing and packaging, corrugated card boards are suggested to keep print(s) from bending. Last year some photographers mailed in tubes available at the post office, additional packing materials are available. Best mailing tube is the 2″ to 2.5″ in diameter.
Please send your print(s) to:
Corky Lee
92-31 57th Ave. #4M
Elmhurst, NY 11373
Print sold for personal use only. No reproduction rights are granted or should be assumed. AAJA will email you the final selling price after the auction for your tax purposes upon request.
