The E-Sylum: Volume 3, Number 32, August 6, 2000, Article 4 ARD W. BROWNING ANA PILGRIMAGE PLANNED Carl Herkowitz of Detroit has been researching the life of Ard W. Browning, author of the classic 1925 work, "The Early Quarter Dollars of the United States". On Thursday, August 10th, about 9-9:30am, Mr. Herkowitz will lead a group of interested bibliophiles and collectors on a trip to a churchyard about 45 miles from the Philadelphia convention center. The group will pay their respects at the final resting place of Browning, and hear an advance reading of Herkowitz' forthcoming article detailing his research. Browning was a long-running numismatic mystery. In his 1992 book "American Numismatic Literature". Charles Davis wrote: "The author is one of the most invisible personages of American numismatics, leaving no personal trace of the history of this work, which some feel was completed long before its 1925 publication by Wayte Raymond." Mr. Herkowitz can be reached at the convention by paging him to the Message Center, or keeping an eye out for him at Charles Davis' table. The trip is open to all interested parties. Wayne Homren, Editor The Numismatic Bibliomania Society is a non-profit organization promoting numismatic literature. See our web site at coinbooks.org.
