NBS EVENTS PLANNED FOR 2016 WORLD'S FAIR OF MONEY

NBS Wiki logo The E-Sylum is brought to you each week by the Numismatic Bibliomania Society. While  The E-Sylum is free to all, only NBS members receive our print publication, The Asylum.

Ably edited by Maria Fanning, the latest issue (Summer 2016) has just been published. See the article elsewhere in this issue for more information.

In this issue NBS President Marc Ricard announces some of the club events planned for this summer's American Numismatic Association World's Fair of Money, to be held August 9-13 in Anaheim, CA. I've already made my travel arrangements and hope to see many of our readers there. -Editor

President’s Message
Marc C. Ricard, NBS President

Dear Friends,

What an exciting time to be a part of Numismatic Literature collecting! With the Newman Portal project in full swing, various mail-bid and auction sales, and many new books becoming available, it gives me great hope for the future of our collecting specialty. We

are also very privileged to enjoy our fine NBS publication, The Asylum, which you hold in your hands right now. This is a benefit of your ongoing membership in our great organization. I encourage all of you to share your copies with non-NBS members and friends, and ask them to join.

Another benefit that the NBS shares with the general collecting public is our annual Symposium, and General Meeting and Auction, that take place at the ANA’s World’s Fair of Money. I am continuing to work within the numismatic community to finalize our speakers for both events, and I encourage your donations of fine numismatic literature to our auction. This is the only non-dues fundraiser that our organization has, and the proceeds continue to be a much needed source of income for our continuing operations. Please contact George Kolbe at gfk@numislit.com or 909-338-6527 to donate your item to the auction.

Please stay tuned to the E-Sylum for more details on our events at the ANA World’s Fair of Money in Anaheim, California, August 2106. Our events are scheduled for Thursday and Friday, August 11 and 12.

It is time to vote for our 2015 Jack Collins Award for best new contributor and Joel J. Orosz Award for best article in last year’s volume of The Asylum, which will be presented in Anaheim. The ballot is inserted in this issue. You may return completed ballots to the address printed on the ballot or vote online at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/T9F8SG9.

I thank all of you for continuing to encourage everyone in the hobby to “Buy the Book, Before the Coin.”

Best regards,
Marc C. Ricard
President, NBS
