  Ken Berger sends this information regarding last week's
  query:

      Original Archival Documents"

  According to the dust jacket, it can be ordered by phone.
  The number is 815-9911 Local 51.  Since it is in the
  Philippines, you'll need the appropriate country code.

  By the way, I asked a certain individual about this book at
  the Long Beach, CA show & he was not very forthcoming
  with respect to information regarding how I may obtain a
  copy.  It's almost as if he wanted to keep it a secret!  I
  received my copy from Bill Elwell of Bishop Coins, who
  very graciously, gave me his own personal copy.  Thanks
  again, Bill.   Hope this information helps."
