American Academy of Arts and Letters
American Academy of Arts and Letters
The American Academy of Arts and Letters is an honor society of 250 architects, composers, artists, and writers. Members of the Academy are elected for life and pay no dues. As vacancies occur, the Academicians nominate and elect new members. The honor of election is considered the highest formal recognition of artistic merit in the United States. The Academy's purpose is to foster and sustain an interest in Literature, Music, and the Fine Arts by identifying and encouraging individual artists. This is done by administering awards and prizes, exhibiting art and manuscripts, funding stage readings and performances of new works, and purchasing works of art to be donated to museums.

Your prices are great compared to other stores - so thank you for this.
- Mar in Pittsburgh, PA.
Exceptional quality in Iwata products. Mistreat was literally the only store which carried this particular product on line.
- Chris in Dana Point, CA
Product exactly as described. I could buy only one rather than a box of 10 or 100 which I would never use. Packaging is as secure as the Federal Reserve Bank.
