GLICKENHAUS VALUE PORTFOLIOS,
THE 1998 EQUITY COLLECTION, SERIES I
A final prospectus for a prior Series of Glickenhaus Value Portfolios,
The 1997 Equity Collection is hereby incorporated by reference and used as a
preliminary prospectus for The 1998 Equity Collection, Series I. The narrative
information and structure of the final prospectus for this Series will be
substantially the same as that of the previous final prospectus. Information
with respect to pricing, the term of the Trust, the number of Units, dates and
summary information regarding the characteristics of securities to be deposited
in this Series is not now available and will be different because each Series
has a unique portfolio. Accordingly, the information contained herein with
regard to the previous Series should be considered as being included for
informational purposes only. Ratings of the securities in this Series are
expected to be comparable to those of the securities deposited in the previous
Series. However, the estimated current return and estimated long term return for
this Series will depend on the interest rates and offering prices of the
securities in this Series and may vary materially from that of the previous
Series. Investors should contact account executives of the underwriters who will
be informed of the expected effective date of this Series and who will be
supplied with complete information with respect to such Series on the day of and
immediately prior to the effectiveness of the registration statement relating to
Units of this Series.
THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS
THE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR
ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL
OFFENSE.
Information contained herein is subject to completion or amendment. A
registration statement relating to these securities has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. These securities may not be sold nor may
offers to buy be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes
effective. This prospectus shall not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities
in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior
to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such State.
