The E-Sylum:  Volume 6, Number 47, November 2, 2003, Article 4

THE LATEST ASYLUM

  E. Tomlinson Fort, the editor of our print journal, The Asylum,
  writes: "It has been wonderful to see all the outpouring of good
  wishes for George Kolbe and his family during these fire
  disasters in California.

  While the Kolbe's remain in our prayers let us not forget the
  thousands who have lost homes and possessions during this
  tragedy.   Also, stop and remember the firemen who are daily
  risking their lives battling these fires.  On National Public Radio
  yesterday they interviewed a fireman who had been on the
  front line 36 hours without break for either food or sleep.
  During the interview he was finally getting a chance to have
  some breakfast which would be followed by a few hours sleep.
  These men and women are the true heroes of this crisis and
  they deserve thanks and generosity of the entire country.

  On a happier note, The Asylum is on its way to the printer
  and should be arriving in people's mailboxes within the next
  fortnight. The contents are:

  "Recollections of D. Wayne Johnson" as told to Pete Smith.
  "Ghostwriting in Numismatics," by David W. Lange.
  "The Printer's Devil: Bowers, Books and Bloviation,"
   by Joel J. Orosz.
  "About the Cover: A Rare Vellum Edition of Andrea Fulvio's
  Illustrium Imagines," by George Frederick Kolbe
  "President's Message," by Pete Smith.
  "Numismatic Literature Bibliography 2000-2003,"
  by E. Tomlinson Fort..

  The Fall 2003 issue is almost finished and we hope to have
  it on its way to the printer in a couple of weeks."
