NEW YORK INTERNATIONAL?
Bill Rosenblum writes: "Another numismatic casualty... nothing
of course compared to the real tragedy..is that the New York
International Show in December and the numerous auctions
associated with it were to take place in December at the
World Trade Center and the Marriot Hotel attached to WTC.
The organizers are scrambling to find a new location.
On a more personal note, my brother Andy, works for
National Development and Research, located on the 16th
Floor of Building #2. They were ordered via a loud speaker
announcement a few minutes after the 1st plane hit to evacuate,
which he, and all his colleagues, did. He was about two blocks
away from the building when the 2nd plane hit and all kinds of
debris started falling. At that time he became one of the
countless people, who we saw on TV running away from the
WTC. Some people might remember Andy who worked with
WP Andrews Co and set up at numerous NYC coin shows in
the 70's & 80's. Thank God, he is alive and well."
Alan Luedeking adds: "I never much liked the New York
International Numismatic Convention in the World Trade Center,
but now that it's gone and I will never see it there again, I wish
I could. Does anybody know yet if NYINC will still be held this
December, and if so when and where?"
