RULAU PUBLISHING PROJECTS 

   New subscriber Russ Rulau sends the following updates 
   on his current projects for Krause Publications: 

   "Hard Times Tokens", 9th edition, will be a freestanding 
   volume with approximately twice the content of the 8th 
   edition (1999), which was part of Standard Catalog of U.S. 
   Tokens 1700-1900. It is already in typesetting at Krause 
   Publications and will be available to public January 2002 and 
   to jobbers December 2001. All pricing and background notes 
   are revised and many new items included, such as Harrison 
   and Clay cent and half-cent sized campaign medalets. The 
   largest expansion will be blow-up photographs of 
   die-evidence study by Wesley S. Cox  and an attempt to 
   assign a designer/maker to every HTT possible.  Pricing 
   accurate as of June 2001. 

    "Tokens of Spain 1800-1970" is a new project being 
   negotiated for publication by Numismatics International 
   of Texas. It is the culmination of some seven years effort. 
   It will include private cardboard chits of the Civil War 
   1936-39 and the 1945 and 1970 change shortages; 
   metal tokens and store cards, including many unlisted 
   CW pieces; proclamation medalets which circulated as 
   money (2-real size and under).  The manuscript is 
   complete and NI officers are considering its feasibility 
   for publication. 

    "Standard Catalog of United States Tokens 1700-1900," 
   4th edition, is to be published by Krause Publications in 
   2004. The manuscript is under preparation for 2003 
   typesetting.  The Hard Times Token section will revert to 
   its normal size in this edition. The U.S. Civil War cardboard 
   chit section is being considerably enlarged, as is the Gay 
   Nineties (1890-1900) section, and a good many more 
   attributed  merchant counterstamps are being added to 
   the three pre-Civil War segments. 

   Prices, size, binding, availability are announcements the 
   publishers must make at appropriate time. The author, 
   Russ Rulau, may be reached thru Krause Publications or 
   Numismatics International."
