BANKNOTE REFERENCE: OEANG REPUBLIK INDONESIA

Howard Daniel writes: "This week I received a booklet titled 'Oeang
Republik Indonesia' (ORI) by Penerbitan Naskah Sumber, Arsip Nasional
Republik Indonesia, Jakarta, 2003, 138 pages.  It is entirely in
Indonesian with no illustrations, so I had to use a dictionary to
see what it is about.  It appears to be a history of all of the
banknotes issued from 1945 to date.  Now I need to find a translator
who can translate it for me and others who collect this country.

"The booklet was sent by Will and Anita Tuchrello in Jakarta, which
they found in a bookstore in Bali while on vacation.  They are very
old friends and Will is the Director of the Library of Congress office
for Southeast Asia.  We met in the Library of Congress in 1981 when I
started my research there on Southeast Asia.  He saw that I was serious
and greatly assisted me in searching the entire library for numismatic
information of interest to me.  I cannot remember how many years of
weekends I was researching there but it was probably most of the 1980s."
