  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

Aunque existen hace varios años y fueron cambiando a lo largo de ellos, hay uno que predomina hace bastante tiempo que son los estándares físicos considerados “normales” (mas allá de que hoy en día fueron modificándose). El rol de los medios de comunicación consolida gran parte de estos estándares ya que vivimos observando imágenes de cosas ideales o perfectas creyendo que son las cuales deberíamos seguir y quienes no cumplan con ellos, no serán aceptados por gran parte de la sociedad. Es por ello que el tema de investigación que escogí para investigar es la denominación de los cuerpos que no cumplen los cánones de belleza denominados “plus size” El enfoque se realizará en la modelo Barbara Palvin, como ícono de lo “plus size” 4 Curriculum: 5 Declaración jurada de autoría: 6 7 8 Índice Abstract……………………………………………………………………………....p.10 Introducción………………………………………………………………………….p.11 Desarrollo…………………………………………………………………………….p.13 Conclusión…………………………………………………………………………...p.19 Bibliografía…………………………………………………………………………...p.21 9 Abstract: Tìtulo: Los estereotipos: cómo la sociedad reacciona ente el término “plus size” Autor: Zoe Michanie Abstract: Hace muchos años que la sociedad convive con los estereotipos e ideales de belleza, los cuales fueron cambiando y modificándose a lo largo del tiempo.
