From a TRF member from far away, a random act of kindness
From a very thoughtful, considerate, kind, and generous member of this forum from thousands of miles away
I was sent this as a gift!! An original 2013 Basel press release kit!! I have never seen one before and it is beautiful and to me now a priceless possession I will cherish This forum has some really tremendous and wonderful members!! I am so appreciative of his thoughtfulness and generosity, not to mention the time, trouble and expense he took to send it! I won't mention his name unless he chimes in but I am sure many will know were it came from |

I would say a non-random act of awesomeness. This shows the true nature of our members. What a wonderful gift!!! I hope the member takes a bow.
