(Please see Post Towle Selling Program Post 1 before reading this)

When I received them, inside the first one was a letter from Towle that explained the program. If you participated, then each month a new booklet would be sent.

In each one was a quiz and pre-paid envelope.

If you completed each quiz and mailed it back for all seven booklets, then you received a Certificate of Completion and a sterling silver key (get it?? selling key? actual sterling key? LOL).

Anyway, I went looking into some pieces I had bought about 6 months ago and voila there it was:

So now I have the whole program except the Certificate of Completion frown

PS the booklets are:

  1. The Selling Key to Patterns

  2. Explaining the Entirely Plain and Very Ornate Patterns

  3. Explaining the Almost Plain Patterns

  4. Explaining the Relatively Plain Patterns

  5. Explaining the Evenly Balanced Patterns

  6. Explaining the Relatively Ornate Patterns

  7. Explaining the Highly Ornate Patterns

There was an 8th booklet for the King Richard pattern.

They are pretty cool.

It was just pure luck that I found all of it and was able to connect-the-dots, so to speak.

Perhaps you can quote some of the guides' choicest advice tidbits for us?

Ok Everyone,

Here are the quizzes and the final letter regarding the King Richard Pattern. Scott has put them online:

Towle Selling Key Quizzes

How many questions can you correctly answer? (nd no, I don't have an extra key as a prize just a big Congratulations! LOL)
