NBS PREPARES FOR ANNUAL MEETING

  NBS Vice-President John W. Adams reports:
  "I have contacted Barry Tayman and George Fuld. Happily,
  they have agreed to join us at our annual meetings at the
  American Numismatic Association convention in Baltimore
  this summer.   Barry and George are working on a monograph
  covering the Blacksmith Tokens;  I have asked them to talk
  about their research methodology for this as well as for other
  projects they have executed.  Astute questioners from our club
  will no doubt want to learn George's secrets for building the
  fabulous library that he succeeded in assembling."

  NBS President Pete Smith adds: "Can anyone suggest a
  Baltimore resource for the NBS Symposium who is not part
  of the "normal" ANA crowd?  Does anyone have Baltimore
  contacts to recommend?"

  [I'm already looking forward to hearing Barry and George's
  talk.  Perhaps we can add a local historian, author, or
  archivist to the lineup who can add something interesting
  regarding numismatic research.   Aren't there Mint or B.E.P.
  archives in the Baltimore/D.C. area?  Perhaps an archivist
  or caretaker could be persuaded to join us and outline the
  extent and an availability of the collections for numismatic
  researchers.  -Editor]
