Whitman Publishing authors will meet and greet collectors and sign copies of their books at the Whitman booth, #236 (next to the U.S. Treasury Department display), at the American Numismatic Association World's Fair of Money, August 15-18, 2017. The show is held at the Pennsylvania Convention Center at 1101 Arch Street in Philadelphia.

I'll probably be a frequent visitor myself. Whitman publisher Dennis Tucker and author Dave Bowers will be on hand at the Whitman display and would be delighted to discuss books—new and old—with any E-Sylum readers. -Editor
