ANA ISSUE

It's that time of year again - the American Numismatic Association holds its annual convention this coming week in Philadelphia. The ANA convention is often the only time of the year when our members get to meet in person.

The annual meeting of the Numismatic Bibliomania Society will take place at 11:30 AM in Room 201C of the Convention Center. At the meeting W. David Perkins will speak on "The Ostheimers of Philadelphia and their Extraordinary Collection of Silver Dollars".

NBS will also host a Numismatic Literature Symposium. Moderated by NBS Board member Dr. Joel Orosz, the symposium will be held on Friday, August 11, from 2 pm to 3:30 (in the same room as the general meeting earlier that day).

Participants include NBS Board member Pete Smith, who will be speaking on the books published about the Philadelphia Mint, and Eric Newman, who will be discussing one of the earliest authors on a numismatic topic in the United States, Beale Bordley.

I'll look forward to seeing many NBS members and E-Sylum subscribers there. As you go about the convention, please keep NBS in mind and help recruit new members and subscribers. Spread the word!

[By the way, due to convention travel your Editor may be a bit late with the next issue. Meanwhile, feel free to send me your thoughts on the convention for the next E-Sylum.]
