QUERY: STONE MOUNTAIN SCRAPBOOK SOUGHT

stone-mountain-half-dollar

Jim Harris writes:

Can anyone assist me in locating a copy or information relating to: "Mrs. N. Burton Bass’s Scrapbook of the [Stone Mountain Association] Harvest Campaign, from the Harry Sponseller collection”? The journal or booklet is mentioned in a footnote supporting the March 1985 Numismatist article written by Bill Hyder, entitled, "The Selling of the Stone Mountain Half Dollar". Hyder states in footnote 23, "Scrapbook on loan from the Harry Sponseller Collection". "Quotes are taken from a photocopy in the authors' possession".

Unfortunately, I have no other information. I assume from the subject, it was compiled circa 1927. Not sure of the format. Perhaps privately printed in limited edition. Any assistance or thoughts would be appreciated.

Can anyone help? Jim can be reached at themscol@comcast.net. These kind of memoirs can provide some interesting background on numismatic issues not available elsewhere. -Editor
