MENDACITY SOUGHT

  Myron Xenos published an article titled "Mendacity Revisited"
  in the latest issue of our print journal, The Asylum.  It deals
  with a famous (among U.S. numismatic bibliophiles, anyway)
  1992 hoax that had many believing that a Mother Lode of
  valuable U.S. numismatic literature was soon coming up for
  sale.   The perpetrator has not come forth, and no one has
  yet been able to conclusively prove who it was.  As one of
  the intended victims, I have my own theory.  In his article
  Myron asked everyone with an opinion to share it with him
  for a follow-up Asylum article.  Myron may be reached at:
  The Money Tree, 1260 Smith Court, Rocky River, OH
  44116.  Fax: 440-333-4463. Email: mdxenos at comcast.net.
  "We will hunt down the scoundrel and give him a trophy,"
  Myron writes.    I got a great laugh out of the hoax when I
  finally put the pieces together, and would like to
  congratulate the culprit myself.
