Here's a final roundup of events for our sponsor organization, the Numismatic Bibliomania Society at the 2021 American Numismatic Association World's Fair of Money. -Editor

The Numismatic Bibliomania Society will be hosting club table #724 from Tuesday through Friday. We will be displaying some of the highlights from our all important charity auction that will be held during the General Meeting on Friday, and be offering NBS coffee mugs for a $25 donation to the NBS. Please stop by to say "hi" and share your thoughts about the NBS.

Symposium and Meeting
The NBS will be holding our Symposium on Thursday, August 12th at 1:00 PM in room 24. The Symposium will feature a presentation by Rusty Goe who is a recognized authority on the history of the Carson City Mint and its coinage. The title of his presentation is Studying the Carson City Mint and its' Coins.

The Board meeting will be held earlier that day (Thursday the 12th) at 11:30, also in room 7.

The General Meeting will be held on Friday, August 13th at 11:30 AM in room 7. The meeting will include the announcement of the awards for the best articles in our print journal, The Asylum and a presentation by NBS Vice President, Len Augsburger discussing the digitalization of Coin World and Numismatic News.

Each year at the ANA World’s Fair of Money, the Numismatic Bibliomania Society conducts a benefit auction to raise funds for the organization. All items sold are donated to the NBS by members and 100% of the proceeds go to the NBS treasury.

This year, we are trying to increase participation in the auction by distributing a catalogue of the sale to all NBS members so that members unable to attend in person can participate. You can download a PDF of the catalogue here.

Absentee bids should be sent to David Fanning at df@numislit.com by the end of Thursday, August 12. The sale will take place on Friday, August 13 as part of the NBS General Meeting, to be held in Room 7 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Please read the terms of sale before bidding.

There are some great items in this year's sale - please do review the catalog and enter bids if you'll be unable to attend the live sale.

Also, be sure to visit the tables of numismatic literature dealers Charlie Davis and Kolbe & Fanning. Charlie's ad elsewhere in this issue describes what he'll have at tables 828-830. Kolbe & Fanning will be located next door at booth 832, and the next article describes some of what they'll have on hand. -Editor
