The E-Sylum: Volume 5, Number 19, May 5, 2002, Article 9 MORE ON NEW ENGLAND MEDALS Bob Fritsch writes: "I sent last week's E-Sylum to my good friend Bob Heath since he was mentioned in it, and got this response. Bob probably knows more about New England medals as a whole than any other person alive. His catalogs are currently being updated with many new and corrected entries." Bob Heath writes: "Thanks for sending me the E-Sylum article. I would like to make a few comments which you can pass along if you want: -Storer 1559, listed as 60mm, also exists in 28mm -Storer 1563, listed as 17mm but actually 19mm, was made by Schwaab Stamp and Seal Co. It was hung from an eagle stick pin common to many of these Schwaab Lord's Prayer pieces. (The piece in the MHS collection does not have the stick pin.) -The "one more" that I added to my catalog is Storer 201, the BNS sixtieth anniversary piece issued in 1920. -Finally, I think the piece that John Merz asked about is Storer 1561 which Dick Johnson has identified as by Julio Kileny, (See MA239-9) Hope this helps complete the picture. Note: MHS=Massachusetts Historical Society BNS=Boston Numismatic Society." Wayne Homren, Editor The Numismatic Bibliomania Society is a non-profit organization promoting numismatic literature.
