Plus information on the various Door Prizes.  What the Diner's Card did not say -- but which was announced during the Door Prize draws -- was that there was a marvelous British Racing Green Ser. I E-Type miniature to be given away. It was the Top Prize of the night.   The winner of the E-Type was determined by his Diner's Card -- the winning Card had a Christmas Star printed above the Christmas tree graphic. Nobody knew about this unique Diner's Card until the moment the prize was given away. All other cards looked like this one .... with no star above the Christmas tree. The back cover of the Diner's Card had a bit of Jaguar-Christmas whimsy.... Each participant at the OJOAChristmas Dinner got to take one of these fine, laser-etched wine glasses home -- free!
