HARDBOUND HERITAGE REIVER SALE CATALOGS

David Gladfelter writes: "Have you mentioned the availability
from Heritage Galleries of a hardbound edition of the three
catalogs of the Jules Reiver collection auctioned this past
January? The collection covered all of the U. S. Mint series
through the 1960s including patterns but was particularly strong
in early (1793-1857) copper and silver. The catalogs are beautifully
illustrated and the pieces well described, including pedigrees.
The hardbound has a sewn binding and adequate interior margins.
The PRL is laid in, not bound in. The cost is $125, but it comes
with a $125 certificate good for any Heritage auction purchase. So
it is a free book - the numismatic literature bargain of the year.
The contact person at Heritage is Kathy Eilers at
KathyE@heritagegalleries.com"

[We haven't mentioned the catalog before, but I ordered one last
month and can attest that it is nicely done.  It's a great reference,
and for me it's a great way to remember a good friend - I had many
enjoyable visits with Jules and his wife Iona in Wilmington, DE.

My only complaint about the catalog is that it's just too big for
one volume - I would have split it into separate volumes.  I was
unaware of the $125 gift certificate, and when it arrived in the
mail I was very pleasantly surprised.  David's right - this is
the numismatic literature bargain of the year!  -Editor]
