HARRIS & CO AND MARKETING

  Regarding the sale of the "Red Book" to H. E. Harris & Co,
  David Lange writes: "This is very good news. As an avid
  collector of coin boards, folders and albums, both old and
  new, I've watched the Whitman titles lose ground over the
  past three or four years, due to lackluster marketing and
  product development. Harris has been very aggressive in
  both areas, and it will be fun to acquire yet another series
  of Whitman folders with the Harris imprint.

  In the few years since the introduction of statehood quarters
  there's been quite a boom in coin folder/album production.
  It's unlike anything seen since the early 1960s. Assembling a
  complete reference collection of all makes, titles and editions
  is a relatively inexpensive, yet challenging hobby. So far, I
  haven't encountered anyone else attempting to do this, though
  there are a handful of people seeking complete sets of the
  Raymond/National and Library of Coins albums."
