WALDO NEWCOMER INFORMATION SOUGHT

Ron Guth writes: "I drooled when reading George Fuld's description of
Waldo Newcomer's coin cabinet.  I've been a big fan of all things Waldo
for quite some time.  In my humble opinion, he is one of the great,
unsung heroes of American numismatics.

"The article prompted a couple of questions for Dr. Fuld concerning
Newcomer:

1. Is there confirmation that Waldo actually committed suicide?
2. Where was he buried?
3. Is a copy of his will available?
4. Is it possible to obtain an image of the coin cabinet?
5. I'll join Milton Lynn's chorus: Is Waldo's coin cabinet for sale?

"Finally, I'd like to recommend that Dr. Fuld put his reminiscences
to paper.  He has so much unique information (names, places, coins,
collections, events) up in his head and it would be exciting to hear
and read them."
