NBS MEETING REPORT: F.U.N. 2004

Fred Lake filed the following report: "A meeting of the
Numismatic Bibliomania Society was held on Saturday,
January 15, 2005 at the Florida United Numismatists
50th Anniversary Convention held in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.

The featured speaker was Howard A. Daniel III, who
discussed his new book, "Socialist Republic of Vietnam
Coins & Currency". Handouts of pages from the book were
distributed to the attendees.

NBS President, Pete Smith, made a few welcoming remarks
and FUN Board of Directors member, Fred Lake introduced
the speaker.

NBS member and Whitman Publishing Representative,
David Crenshaw presented a copy of the new leather-bound
edition of the 2005 "Redbook" to be auctioned to the audience.
Carl Feldman was the lucky winner of the raffle.

Bill Swoger gave a short presentation on his two new emissions
and then "trapped" the audience by asking if anyone knew how
to pronounce Mr. Zerbe's first name??? You are tricky, Bill.

Those in attendance were Mark Clark, Carl Feldman, Howard
A. Daniel III, William Swoger, David Crenshaw, Bob Fritsch,
Clifford Mishler, George Fitzgerald, Pete Smith, Fred Lake,
Jeff Reichenberger, and Chuck Armstrong.

A meeting will be held next year at the FUN convention in
Orlando, Florida. The show will be held Jan. 5-8, 2006. Do
the NBS members have any preference for the time of the
meeting, or is the Saturday at 11:30 AM time a good one?
Please let me know at fredlake at tampabay.rr.com if you
have a suggestion. "
