The E-Sylum: Volume 4, Number 34, August 19, 2001, Article 6 GROLIER CLUB MEDALS Last week's announcement of the Grolier Club exhibit of numismatic literature brought these responses: Joe Levine writes: "Your readership may be interested to know the following: The Grolier Club issued a number of art plaques honoring famous American writers. These are large, well-executed cast pieces honoring Nathaniel Hawthorne by Ringel DiIllzach (1892) James Russell Lowell by Charles Calverley (1895) Edgar Allen Poe by Edith Woodman Burroughs (1909) Henry Wadsworth Longfellow by John Flanagan (1911) Ralph Waldo Emerson by Victor D. Brenner (1911)." Dave Bowers writes: "It is a crying shame that the Grolier Club exhibit seems to IGNORE (or at least you don't mention it in your blurb) AMERICAN numismatic literature. The Grolier Club is at once impressive and traditional, and even a "side display" of American numismatic literature would have been beneficial. Perhaps it is not too late to include such, especially since the AMERICAN Numismatic Society seems to be involved!"
