FLEA MARKET FIND
By contrast, one of the most desirable items of American
numismatic literature was recently cherrypicked from a
flea market. The November 19, 2001 issue of "The Coin
Collector" from Bowers and Merena Galleries reports:
"On a recent trip to a flea market, reader J.L. bought for
just $8 a copy of W. Elliot Woodward's 1864 auction of
the McCoy collection. Bet he could turn a 1000% profit
in the wink of an eye." (p7, "This & That" column).
