International Yacht Awards If you're a yacht owner or designer, you can't do better than the Showboats
Award. The annual award is bestowed by Showboats International magazine,
the preeminent publication for yachts over 100 feet long, in 16 design categories.
Yacht owners, designers and aficionados flock to Monaco each summer in hopes
of bringing home the coveted prize. Recipients of the 2006 award were especially
fortunate, for they received a unique trophy designed and created by Conant
Metal and Light -- a 12" x 5" x 4" sculpture created of multicolored, etched glass and
brass. By all accounts, the trophy was a showstopper!

The stunning result of this project has earned accolades from historic preservationists throughout the world. The Concord Free Public Library is renowned for its special collection of materials documenting the Colonial, Revolutionary and literary history of Massachusetts, including the papers of Hawthorne, Thoreau, Frost, Emerson, Dickinson, Melville and
others. |
