NOTES FROM DAN GOSLING 
   Dan Gosling writes: "In 1999 I had an opportunity to purchase 
   a bound set of early Canadian Coin News from Paul Fiocca 
   at Trajan Press.  I have really enjoyed reading the back issues 
   of this fine publication.  How do your readers feel about 
   binding newspapers?  Do many find it difficult to store them 
   on their bookshelves? 
   I wish Harry Bass could come back and index all of our 
   hobby's newspapers.   Have any been started or completed? 
   While reading Cale's Comments in the Nov 14, 1964 edition 
   of the Canadian Coin News he referred to the comic strip 
   "Blondie", that appeared in the Globe and Mail (Toronto) 
   on Oct 15, 1964, "which depicted Dagwood and his son 
   Elmer hornswoggling each other in a coin collecting deal". 
   It might be a fun topic to find out if your readers know of 
   other comic strips that deal with our hobby.  Love your 
   weekly E-Sylum." 
   [Editor's note:  Harold Thomas is working on an extensive 
    bibliography of U.S. numismatics, and he does include 
   many articles from hobby newspapers such as Coin 
   World and Numismatic News]
