IMPORTANT BANGKOK AUCTION

  Howard A. Daniel III writes: "The online catalogue for the
  Bangkok Stampex Auction was just put online and is available
  at http://www.eurseree.com.  The dates of the show are
  February 25-29, 2004.  The lots not only include many Thai
  banknotes and coins, but also NCLT, medals, tokens and other
  pieces.  There are also some pieces in it from surrounding
  Southeast Asian countries and China, and some French
  newspapers with articles about Siam (Thailand).  In several
  cases, the pieces have not been seen on the international
  numismatic marketplace in decades, so this auction is
  important to Thai specialists.  The last auction had a hardcopy
  of the catalog available but I have not yet taken the time to see
  if it can be ordered for this auction because I am traveling and
  want to get this out to The E-Sylum readers before I forget to
  type this."

PRINTING 2x2 COIN ENVELOPES

  Dave Wnuck of  Wallingford, CT writes: "Over the past 8
  months I have been looking for a company that will print my
  company name and logo on some 2x2 paper envelopes.

  I thought it would be cool to have printed envelopes of the
  type that I actually collect from famous auctions & dealers
  of the past.  I thought it would be easy to get this done, but
  it took many phone calls, internet searches and emails to
  find someone who would & could do it.

  I did find someone who would do it, and that is the purpose
  of this posting.  His name is Lance Williams, and he runs a
  small business in New York State called "Williams Stationary"

  These envelopes apparently are quite hard to print on, and it
  requires some degree of skill (and old letterpress equipment).
  Long story short -- he did a great job for us!  At the end of our
  transaction, I asked him how business was.  He said, "Pretty
  slow, actually".   I said that I would do my part to spread
  the word.  Here is his contact info:

  Williams Stationary Company
  P.O. Box 266
  Camden NY 13316-0266
  (800) 425-2338
  kadet at americu.net

  He can obtain and print on archival quality envelopes, in many
  colors, in 2 x 2 or 3x3 or several other sizes, and can sell you
  printed envelopes with built-in cotton liners, or built-in archival
  tissue, or ?

  Before you get the wrong idea, let me say that I have no
  financial interest in this.  It just seemed a good way to help
  someone out and let hobbyists know where to get this obscure
  service performed."
