Greetings!

There are many exciting things to share that have happened in the last month. The response to the Tomb of Noel Rockmore by John Ed Bradley in Garden & Gun continues to send new fans and collectors to join us on The Noel Rockmore Project.

The Opening at the Marfa Ballroom in Texas of "The World According to New Orleans"  was a big success and has helped us get a foothold in the Artworld with some significant folks that are now following the Project. If you wish to read the detailed version of the Marfa Adventure complete with 42 enlargeable pictures you can read it on The Noel Rockmore Trail Blog. 

Tee Marvin is diligently editing Curator Dan Cameron's walk through tour with the artist at the Marfa Ballroom Opening and that will be the First Project for The Golden Era of the French Quarter Foundation which is now an Official Non Profit Corporation in the State of Louisiana. Details to follow on both these exciting developments soon. 

There is also an Auction coming up next weekend April 16 & 17 at Neal Auction with prize Rockmores below and a JazzFest Sketchbook - Click here for details on the Neal Auction works below.  

None of the upcoming Quality Rockmore works being offered at Neal Auction or New Orleans Auction are from the Shirley Marvin Collection. The recent publicity that Rockmore has been getting has brought many new Rockmores out. This could possibly be the BEST time to pick up Rockmore's at Auction Houses just before the word gets out nationally which of course is our goal! 

These Rockmores are on eBay this weekend April 9 & 10 at 10PM ET! 

There are the works from Shirley's Collection being offered on eBay this weekend including the Great Preservation Hall Piano Player and all the works shown right above! 

Gypsy Lou Webb is back home in Slidell after a month long stay in the Hospital in New Orleans following a fall. Click here for details on Lou's latest inspirational victory over aging.

Shirley Marvin is in Oschner Hospital in Baton Rouge with an irregular heartbeat condition discovered on a routine checkup this past Monday that they are monitoring very closely. She hopes to go home very soon and loves getting notes and cards so if you wish to do so the address is Shirley Marvin, 333 Lee Dr. Apt. 235, Baton Rouge, LA, 70808.

Sometimes the real blessing in life is enjoying the journey you are on with the people you love while you can.

Have a GREAT April,

Rich & Tee & Shirley Marvin
