Celebrity-Autographed Malaguti Scooter Up for Bid on eBay Just in Time for Holiday Gift-Giving.


Sutter Sut·ter   , John Augustus 1803-1880.

American pioneer, raised in Switzerland. The discovery of gold on his land led to the California gold rush (1848-1849).
 Home Partners with CBS' "The Early Show" To Raise Money for Breast Cancer Charities
WHAT:   A "Pretty in Pink" Malaguti scooter that was first shown on
        "The Early Show" on CBS on Oct. 19th and has since been signed
        by several top-name celebrities, including: Henry Winkler (aka
        "The Fonz"), Robert Redford, Dustin Hoffman, Lilly Tomlin,
        Anne Heche, Larry Hagman, Linda Gray, Patrick Duffy and
        Pierce Brosnan.

        This stylish scooter was donated to "The Early Show" by
        Malaguti and Sutter Home Family Vineyards during Breast Cancer
        Awareness Month to be autographed by celebrities visiting the
        show through the end of Nov. The scooter will then be listed
        on eBay, The World's Online Marketplace(R), to benefit breast
        cancer organizations through the winery's Sutter Home for Hope
        campaign (www.sutterhomeforhope.com).

WHEN:   The pink Malaguti scooter will be available on eBay beginning
        on Dec. 6 and continuing through Dec. 13.

HOW:    To place a bid on the Malaguti, visit
        (www.ebay.com/sutterhomeforhope) to register. This charity
        auction is being managed by Kompolt. Kompolt is the highly
        regarded "go-to" online auction agency for creating
        successful, high value and high profile promotional and

WHY:    The Sutter Home for Hope campaign demonstrates how something
        good can spring from tragedy. The program was conceived in
        2001 by Winery Owner Vera Trinchero Torres and Senior Vice
        President Terry Wheatley, who were diagnosed with breast
        cancer within weeks of each other. At the same time, several
        other women at the winery were also going through their own
        battles with breast cancer. Through surgeries and treatment,
        these women are now cancer-free and continue to be an
        inspiration and the driving forces behind Sutter Home for
        Hope. The program funds organizations which promote early
        detection and those that seek a cure for the disease.
