WHEN NUMISMATISTS FLY
Michael E. Marotta writes: "I bought the catalog for the
Bowers & Ruddy sale of the collection of James A.
Doolittle. Not only was he not the aviator, he was not even
Eliza's dad.
Nice collection, though, and nice snapshots of Carol
Burnett and Henry Fonda. My experience is that aviating
and collecting are two different mindsets. In my case,
they overlap. I have met other numismatists who fly.
I have never met any fliers who also collect. Do any
E-Sylum readers know of auctions the numismatic (or
philatelic) collections of aviators?"
