SUBSCRIBER PROFILE: CHRIS HOELZLE 

   New subscriber Chris Hoelzle writes: "Thank you for adding 
   me to the E-Sylum list.  I was most impressed with the past 
   few newsletters you forwarded to me! 

   I became aware of the Numismatic Bibliomania Society 
   some time ago while looking at George Kolbe's web site. 

   My numismatic book collecting hobby/habit/addiction 
   began with a few volumes used for ancient coin attribution. 
   It continued to grow to become a comprehensive "working" 
   library on ancients, U.S., and foreign coins.  My primary 
   source for these books was John Bergman.  John got me 
   "hooked"  on antiquarian works, and now most of my new 
   purchases are 16th through 19th century works. 

   John's library and inventory have now been dispersed. 
   His better books have gone to George Kolbe, who will 
   be auctioning them over some period of time.  The first of 
   these auctions will be in conjunction with the Long Beach 
   coin show this fall. 

   I purchased the remainder of his inventory with the desire 
   to enhance my personal library.  ALL remaining copies of 
   books and catalogs will be sold.  I NEVER keep a duplicate. 
   I suppose that is just part of my quirky collector ethic. 

   I am now actively seeking out avenues to sell the duplicate 
   copies, and this brought me once again in contact with the 
   Numismatic Bibliomania web site."
