PSE Set Registry 2008 Award Winners

With nearly 1,100 sets registered in the PSE Set Registry, we enjoyed an increase of 300 sets from 2007.
The judges were impressed by the amazing quality of so many of the sets, making selecting of the 2008
winners a daunting task. 139 sets will receive the "Best of the Registry" certificate for being at least 75%
complete and in the top spot! We wish to extend our sincere thanks to all members participating in
the Registry program. Your continuing support and enthusiasm are greatly appreciated.
