CHARLOTTESVILLE CONNECTIONS
John Kraljevich writes: "What fun to see two Charlottesville VA
blurbs in one E-sylum! Heartwood Books is one of many great
bookstores in the area, and I'm pleased to see that the cherrypicks
have started to reappear since I skipped town with a sheepskin
in May 1999. Visitors to town should definitely check out the
UVa stacks too -- nicely bound set of the American Journal of
Numismatics (in addition to hundreds of other volumes, particularly
heavy on South Asian numismatics) is on the circulation shelves,
but you'll have to special request the large paper copy of
Woodward's McCoy sale from an off-site location.
And regarding Dr. Thomas Addis Emmet, his dad was one of
Jefferson's original professors at the University and Emmet Hall
(now a first-year dormitory) is named in his memory. Many of
Emmet's papers are preserved in UVa Special Collections, but
who knows what if anything resides therein regarding colonial
currency. Before I read the article I had no idea his son was a
collector! A thoroughly interesting family, it seems."
