ON PHILATELIC WEST

Len Augsberger writes: "There is a set of the Philatelic West at
the Smithsonian philatelic library. There is another in Lincoln, NE
at the state historical society. The ANS has miscellaneous issues
which are virtually crumbling. Orville Grady had a batch of a fifty
or so issues a few years back which I was the underbidder on.

They do have numismatic content and are waiting for careful
researchers. I've been wanting to get to one of the complete sets
in Lincoln or Washington for awhile. Philatelic West was the
forerunner of Hobbies, which had some marvelous numimsmatic
content provided by Thomas Elder in the twilight of his career. "

what great info/gossip/whatever is waiting. -Editor]
