MAYERS' LITERATURE OF AMERICAN NUMISMATICS 

   Regarding the latest issue of our print journal, The Asylum, 
   Alan Luedeking writes:  "I greatly enjoyed Joel Orosz' article 
   on Frederick Mayers' paper on American numismatic 
   bibliography; like all the works that flow from Joel's pen, it 
   was excellent. 

   In it he mentions that George Kolbe first made the connection 
   to Mayer's paper having been read before the American 
   Numismatic Society  in 1858 in his Numismatic Bookseller 
   No. 42 of 1995.  Actually, George made this connection earlier, 
   in the extensive notes to lot 450 in his Sale 50 on December 8, 
   1991. The price realized clearly indicates that this item was 
   underappreciated at the time."
