KOLBE & FANNING'S FIRST "BUY OR BID" SALE

Kolbe & Fanning Numismatic Booksellers are announcing their first "Buy or Bid Sale," which will close on Wednesday, May 9. The sale is designed to sell hundreds of lots cheaply, giving collectors an opportunity to add to their libraries at inexpensive prices.

The sale will be online only: there will be no printed catalogue. The PDF catalogue will be available for downloading from the Kolbe & Fanning website at www.numislit.com sometime this week. An email will be sent to all K&F customers for whom they have addresses once the catalogue is posted; postcards will also be sent.

As the name of the sale suggests, customers may bid on items they wish to acquire or buy them outright at the published price. The Terms of Sale will give full instructions on how to participate.

The sale consists of items that have remained unsold in previous mail-bid sales. "Buy" prices have been kept low to promote sales. To further encourage participation, the firm is offering free postage to addresses in the U.S. for bidders spending at least $500; there will also be no packing and processing fee for this sale. Again, please read the Terms of Sale before participating.

If you wish to be added to Kolbe & Fanning's email list, or if you have any questions about the sale, please write to David Fanning at df@numislit.com. He can also be reached at (614) 414-0855.

The Buy or Bid Sale should be posted to www.numislit.com by Friday, April 20.
