Competition Rules

 

Following are the rules of entry for the Tonner “On Film” Convention Competitive Exhibit.  Please read these carefully. 

Please complete the enclosed Competition Exhibit Entry Form in duplicate to be submitted with your dolls when you bring them to the competition room for display. We will be informally photographing the dolls for a slide presentation during drop off. We look forward to seeing you and your lovely dolls at the convention.  Thank you for sharing your creativity with us!
