HUGH SHULL SEEKS INFORMATION ON CONFEDERATE PAPER MONEY

Dennis Tucker of Whitman Publishing forwarded this press release on
Hugh Shull's request for information for his planned book on
Confederate paper money:

"A Guide Book of Confederate Currency is scheduled to be released
in 2008, and author Hugh Shull is seeking information and images
from collectors.

"“I have scans of the finest known set of Confederate States notes
ever put together,” said Shull. “What I'm looking for now is images
of rare varieties, errors such as mismatched serial numbers and
inverted backs, rare watermarks, and any other unusual CSA notes.”

"Collectors and numismatists who have access to such pieces may
contact Shull by telephone (803-996-3660) or by mail (PO Box 2522,
Lexington, SC 29071). Contributors will be acknowledged in the book.

"A Guide Book of Confederate Currency will be the authoritative
guide to paper money issued by the Confederate States of America,
from the early days of secession into the war years. Following the
formula of Whitman Publishing's Southern States Currency (2007),
also by Shull, it will combine the author's first-hand knowledge
of today's market with historical text by researcher Wendell Wolka.
Features include detailed descriptions, hundreds of full-color
images, and valuations in multiple grade levels. A mid-2008
release is scheduled."
