WAYNE'S WORDS: THE E-SYLUM 17 JUNE, 2007

Among our recent subscribers are Phil Mussell of Token Publishing,
Michael Reed, and Kwame Bandele. Welcome aboard!  We now have 1,131
subscribers.

Happy Father's Day, U.S. Dads!  This week we open with announcements of
NBS events planned for this summer's ANA convention and David Fanning's
sixth fixed price list of numismatic literature.  David Lange reports
that his new book on Coin Collecting Boards is complete and awaiting
printing.  In the research department, we continue our discussion on
microfilmed numismatic periodicals, and Dave Ginsburg gives us an
update on the numismatic periodicals available on the Internet.
Dick Johnson provides his tips for numismatists doing archival
research, and Ed Snible and Harry Waterson discuss the ins and outs
of publisher and writer-for-hire copyrights.

In the news, a rare and probably unique architect's painting of the
second U.S. Mint in Philadelphia has sold at auction, and the Jacob
Perkins mint building moves one step closer to becoming a museum.
Also, my London Diary resumes this week in two parts.

Other topics include a New York artist's elaborate "Dream Dollars",
a Hawaiian man's recreation of Hawaiian banknotes, chemistry-based
anti-counterfeiting solutions, and an article on African-American
connections to numismatics.  To learn about the rare and mystical
banknotes of the lost colony of Nadiria, read on. Have a great
week, everyone.
