BEISTLE PACKING MATERIALS    

  American Numismatic Association curator Lawrence Lee writes:   
  "Regarding Martin Luther Beistle and his book "The Register of   
  Half Dollar Die Varieties and Sub-Varieties:   Aficionados of Beistle   
  minutia may be interested to learn that the ANA Museum has in its   
  collection the original metal plates used in printing both the 1929   
  and 1964 editions of Beistle's  book.  The plates were a gift from   
  Aubrey Bebee.  Dick Johnson's history of Beistle's paper company   
  helped explain one of the questions about this donation: the plates   
  are separated by pieces of cardboard with various Halloween   
  cut-outs imprinted on them."
