ANA HALL OF FAME

  In response to last week's question about the American
  Numismatic Association Hall of Fame, Chris Fuccione
  quickly located the information on the ANA web site.
  I suspected it could be found there.   Gail Baker, the
  ANA's Education Director, also responded quickly.
  She writes: "The ANA Hall of Fame with a listing of all
  the inductees is in the ANA web site (www.money.org)
  at http://www.money.org/halloffame.html"

  The following is from the web page:  "To perpetuate and
  enshrine the names of the most important numismatists of
  all time, the American Numismatic Association established
  the Numismatic Hall of Fame at its headquarters in Colorado
  Springs, Colorado.

  The brainchild of Jack W. Ogilvie, a Hollywood film writer
  and editor who served as ANA historian from 1950 to 1970,
  the Numismatic Hall of Fame was created in August 1964.
  A constitution and bylaws were drafted that year, and the
  first inductees were named in 1969. The next group was
  enshrined in 1970, with subsequent honorees inducted every
  two years thereafter."
