REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Article
43, § 67B.

In subsections (a)(4) and (b) of this section,
the former enumeration of types of transfers are
deleted as Unnecessary in light of the definition
of "sell" in § 11-401 of this subtitle.

Subsection (c) of this section is revised to
conform to Departmental practice, which prohibits
the use of any of the enumerated items.

In subsection (c)(4) of this section, the former
reference to "shoddy" is deleted as included in
"secondhand". See the revisor's note to § 11-401
of this subtitle.

In subsection (d)(1) of this section, the former
words "term" and "designation" are deleted as
unnecessary in light of the use of the word
"statement".
