SUMMER 2018 COIN BOARD NEWS PUBLISHED

NEW DISCOVERY LEADS TO FURTHER RESEARCH ON MALLOY The discovery of a new variety for the Lincoln Printing Company coin board custom printed on behalf of funeral director Dave J. Malloy prompted board collector Chris Buck to do some more digging on this interesting character, and the fruit of his endeavor is seen in a series of images reproduced with this issue.

BLAST FROM THE PAST I've been dabbling with coin boards and albums for a very long time, and while poking around the wealth of periodicals on view at the Newman Numismatic Portal I came across an ad of mine from 1986 offering duplicate Whitman Bookshelf and Library of Coins albums. This is reprinted for a bit of fun.

As long as we're reaching back to the past, one of my favorite websites to surf is the Wayback Machine (https://archive.org/web). This site evidently was named as a tribute to Mr. Peabody's invention in the animated cartoon, Peabody's Improbable History, itself a recurring segment in the show The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle. This site captures countless websites over a period of many years, allowing users to see them as they were at any particular time. My own board website may be viewed in all its vintage glory at the following address: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://coincollectingboards.com/ Just click on the highlighted dates back to 2007.
