Jim Stutsman brought a white large envelope to Cleveland Park Wine and Spirits to give to Sidney Moore which somehow got lost in the shuffle of things and which I discovered today in a folder of Jim Stutsman things! I will now have to give it to her son Harry to share with his sister Jessie!

I am delighted to be discovering things chez Quinn and taking carebof them accordingly and this larger white envelope that was given to me by Jim Stutsman for Sidney Moore I will have to pass on to her son Harry Moore to share with his sister Jessie. Jim wrote a letter to Sidney on May 9, 2005

The envelope was not sealed and sonImlooked inside and found these items that I have photographed and will now shrevwith all those that loved Sidney Moore as there are many of you!
Cheers, Anthony Quinn 2/9/2026 happy Monday 12:43pm as the Buddhist monks approach their destination in Arlington Virginia and the winter Olympics in Milan and Cortina continue today, yay! Love you Jim and Sidney! Tony

I loved working for Sidney Moore Margolis at the Mayflower Wine wines and spirits ( also just added a picture of the tasting room up the ramp with Janet Galloway at the table with the wall behind her filled with incredible Chianti Fossi 1958-79, ans Mondanto, Capanelle, Monte Vertine, more) in the mid eighties and she let me draw the labels for our house wine of Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon that we purchased from @RoundHill cellars- Sidney believed in me as an artist, thank you Sidney!

Here is part of a newsletter in collage I made as well as my two wine labels and the wooden box we got from Italy in a containwr shipment and the Chardonnay bottles in it in the store!

Pictured with my wine labels are Iris in the background down by thevfront of the store, in thevstore front window with the corks in strings and on the floor at the front window, and in the back with Janey Gallaway that knew Sidney and helped hervwith our wine tastings in the store with our customers, and the incredible wall of Chianti wines behind her featuring Fossi Chianto from 1958-1979, and Monsanto and Monte Vertine and Capanelle, more! my videos I made and am posting today, Wednesday, February 11, 2026 at 1:13pm now! sunny bright snow covered still outside, reflections off the snow ice outside now! what a glorious blaze celebration during Winter Olympics and the successful march of the 19 Buddhist monks tobWashington DC! YAY! The wonderful world of Chianti wines on the back wall of the store up on the ramp and upper level of Sudney and Michael and Karen's office as well as the tasting room!
