$\"WHIT09\"$ <\/div>\n

With orders streaming in every day, we’re getting some outstanding feedback from viewers of the latest What’s Hot In Tucson<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Here’s what one customer said:<\/p>\n

“Bryan, as I am typing this I am watching WHIT ’09. It just gets better every year. The photography and sound quality are superb….I can see where every year you are raising the bar. This year with the labels on each mineral shown is another milestone.”<\/div>\n

What he’s referring to is a new feature we added to the 2009 program – on-screen labels<\/span> to just about every mineral specimen we review. That’s HUNDREDS<\/span> of labels showing the proper spelling<\/span> of each specimen as well as information on its locale<\/span> – all cross-checked with information on the mindat.org<\/a> online database.<\/p>\n

$\"Pyrite\"$ <\/div>\n

Creating these labels was a monumental task but once we started looking at the results, we knew we had to have this feature on this, and future, What’s Hot In Tucson<\/span> programs. Now What’s Hot In Tucson<\/span> can be a fantastic reference guide AND it can also help teach new collectors about the huge variety of minerals. Huge thanks<\/span> to all our Featured Dealers<\/span> and Collectors<\/span> who showed endless patience helping out.<\/p>\n

Also added to the 2009 program is our new segment<\/span> $\"azurite\"$ where Dave Wilber creates a mineral collection<\/span> of specimens costing $99 or less<\/span>!!! We created this to help illustrate that, despite the rising cost of minerals, there are still great deals<\/span> to be found if you invest the time and energy<\/span> to find those hidden deals.<\/p>\n

$\"scovil09\"$ And returning from last year is Jeff Scovil’s mini segment – Scovil’s Top Ten Tucson Photos<\/span> – updated to reflect Scovil’s favorite photos from the 2009 show. Not only do you have close-up pans and scans direct from Scovil’s digital files, you also have Scovil narrating the entire program explaining exactly what he likes about each photo.<\/p>\n

$\"Spanns09\"$ This year’s interview with the Westward Mineral Show’s <\/span>Featured Collectors is with Jim & Gail Spann <\/span>who had their mouth-watering collection on display in the lobby of the Westward Look Resort. Listen to Jim and Gail share their thoughts on the hobby<\/span> of mineral collecting as your eyes feast on close-up shots<\/span> of each one of their specimens on display.<\/p>\n

And just when you finally get through all of this mind-blowing content<\/span>, keep your eyes peeled for even more segments<\/span> as we bring back What’s Hot In Tucson: ONLINE<\/span>. This is where we take the segments that couldn’t fit on the DVDs and post them online for everyone to watch for FREE<\/span>!<\/p>\n

So start your mineral fix right here<\/a> with What’s Hot In Tucson: 2009<\/span> – the best What’s Hot In Tucson<\/span> yet. Still two DVDs, still only $29.99.<\/p>\n
