NBS DONATION AUCTION

  Hal Dunn couldn't attend the ANA convention, but shipped
  two autographed copies of his book "Tokens and Medals
  Depicting The Carson City Mint."    He writes: "Although
  these are certainly not rare (retail at $7.50 at the State
  Museum), my experience with fund raising auctions is that
  stuff sells for unheard of prices.   I have a reminder that this
  is true hanging on my living room wall  --- a print that retails
  for around $400 framed, that I got run up on the price to
  almost $800!  But it was for a good  cause and it looks
  great on the wall.

  Hope you have a great NBS meeting and a great visit to
  Baltimore.  Wish I could be there."

  [Many thanks to Hal and all of our donors and bidders.
   $845 was raised at the meeting, which goes a long way
   toward covering our expected defecit.  President Pete
   Smith has a list of all auction lots, donors and winning
   bidders, and will acknowledge everyone in an upcoming
   Asylum issue.]
