NOTES FROM E-SYLUM READERS: NOVEMBER 1, 2020 Bernard Olij's Bookplate "I'd like to share a bookplate (exlibris) I designed for myself. The design is based on a Spanish 8 Reales, with details changed (a.b.olij, born 1937, lived in the East and West Indies, etc.)"
Very nice! Great idea. I like it. Thanks. -Editor

Schools at War Jeep Treasury Certificate "In response to George Cuhaj's Treasury Certificate for the 1970s CENT ("penny") shortage, I came across on eBay another interesting bit of numismatic ephemera issued by the Treasury Dept. during WWII as part of a War Jeep Campaign amongst the schools."
Interesting WWII ephemera. I wasn't familiar with this program. I'm old, but not THAT old. -Editor

Masked Numismatics "The illustration of Ben with a mask is rather clever."
I was unable to locate the particular article online, but the image it used is a stock photo similar to the one shown below. I also encountered a related one of a masked Queen Victoria in the Autumn 2020 Money & Medals newsletter. Signs of the times. -Editor
