-- guild hq, dateline 31/03/2000 --
Today, on 31 March 2000, we, the undersigned, are pleased to publicly announce
the formation and existence of
-- THE GUILD OF BRICKSMITHS(tm) --
The Guild is a band of LEGO Fans who have become concerned at the dearth of
high quality kits available and decided to do something about it. Founded in
early December of 1999, the Guild began planning ways of fostering commerce
and developing kits for the Adult Fan marketplace, working together to
develop the mechanisms to make it happen, and gathering supplies for our
initial production runs.
