GUTTAG NEW YORK STORECARD CENSUS

Regarding Robert Rightmire's question about the 1927 Guttag Brothers storecard, Pete Smith writes:

I have eight different Guttag Brothers storecards but not the one shown in The Numismatist in June 1927. I was amused with the comment that this may have been the first numismatic storecard. Some of the Guttag pieces are dated 1923.

I consider 1858 to be the date of the first American numismatic storecards. The first ones were issued in the name of an individual. Off hand I don't recall when the first one was issued in the name of a company.

Joseph Alan Barnosky writes:

I have one. Saw the articles on point in The E-Sylum, and, my eye caught, off to eBay it was. Saved the search, and time did the job.

Harry Waterson writes:

Attached are my images of the Guttag Rare Coins varieties. These are the four I know of. I do not own any of these pieces. I just got caught up by the number of variations. The one I have noted as unlisted is a mule of two Guttag obverses.
