(August 25, 2003 Middletown, VA)  Shenandoah Valley's renowned gourmet chip factory, Route 11 Potato Chips, has just received shipment of a limited edition of "Patsy Cline" tins portraying Patsy in five photos from different eras of her career. In photos taken from 1952 to 1962, the tin reveals a multi-faceted presence of Patsy Cline in a unique keepsake item.

Proceeds from the sale of the tin will benefit Celebrating Patsy Cline's museum effort.

On August 25, the commemorative tin will officially go on sale. Celebrating Patsy Cline President, Jim Stutzman, Jr. will ceremoniously purchase the first tin as a gift for Patsy's family. He intends to present it to them during the Patsy Cline Fan Club weekend, which is being held in Winchester over Labor Day Weekend.

Celebrating Patsy Cline appreciates media focus on this announcement, and would certainly welcome all types of media coverage.
