    Wanna Be on the June Cover of the AC?

    Greetings Everyone:

    Yes, it is that time of the month again - May 20th. So, "Do You Wanna be on the June Cover of the Authentic Campaigner?"

    We are looking for images that best-exemplify the look of the authentic living historian. Images taken with period technology only are required (wet plate, pencil drawing, field sketches, etc.) Please refrain from submitting an image that you have submitted within the last year. We are looking for new images and have a few days to gather the candidates. Let's keep things fresh. Thanks!

    Submission Guidelines:

    1) We will accept the first ten image submissions only. The thread will be closed after the tenth image is submitted, and any images submitted after the tenth will be deleted from the thread.

    2) Once we have ten images, the staff will select the final three. The final three will then be put up for a general vote to the membership of the forum. The winning image will be placed on the front "cover" of the web site for one month.

    3) Make sure and attach the photo to your post. If necessary, we will crop the photo for the best fit.

    4) The Moderators/Administrators reserve the right to remove any submittals that they feel don't meet the standards of the Authentic Campaigner.

    Now, let's see your best images!

    This is a wetplate of two Independent Rifle members, Evan Ellis and Justin Morris, taken by Tim Parsons several years ago at South Union, KY.

          Thought I would submit the wet plate image I use as an avatar here on the forum. It was taken by Robert Hartsaw.

            Here's one I had Wendell Decker do last weekend. It's based on a couple of images I have on my hard drive of woodworkers of the time. None of the tools in the photo are less than 140 years old.

                        Wow, that was fast. Sorry Justin, your's was the 11th image, so it was deleted. We will be asking for submittals again on June 20th, so be watching this folder around that time.

                        We will now select the final three in the AC Focus Group and the general vote will be up in around four days. Thanks to everyone who submitted. This thread is officially closed.
