SUBSCRIBER PROFILE: CHRIS HOELZLE
New subscriber Chris Hoelzle writes: "Thank you for adding
me to the E-Sylum list. I was most impressed with the past
few newsletters you forwarded to me!
I became aware of the Numismatic Bibliomania Society
some time ago while looking at George Kolbe's web site.
My numismatic book collecting hobby/habit/addiction
began with a few volumes used for ancient coin attribution.
It continued to grow to become a comprehensive "working"
library on ancients, U.S., and foreign coins. My primary
source for these books was John Bergman. John got me
"hooked" on antiquarian works, and now most of my new
purchases are 16th through 19th century works.
John's library and inventory have now been dispersed.
His better books have gone to George Kolbe, who will
be auctioning them over some period of time. The first of
these auctions will be in conjunction with the Long Beach
coin show this fall.
I purchased the remainder of his inventory with the desire
to enhance my personal library. ALL remaining copies of
books and catalogs will be sold. I NEVER keep a duplicate.
I suppose that is just part of my quirky collector ethic.
I am now actively seeking out avenues to sell the duplicate
copies, and this brought me once again in contact with the
Numismatic Bibliomania web site."
