Fred Lake submitted this notice about his upcoming numismatic literature sale. Thanks. -Editor
In my capacity as a member of the Board of Directors of the Florida United Numismatists (FUN), I perform several functions that require
me to use a four-wheel “scooter” in order to get to a number of locations at the FUN Convention practically at the same time, etc. , and
this would include, for instance, to take photographs.
I had a mishap on Thursday, January 7th that caused me to accidentally drive backwards off a four-step staircase. This careless act
caused me to incur several broken ribs putting me into the hospital. I was there until I arrived home on January 10th. Because of all this,
we have decided to postpone our sale #124, originally scheduled for Feb. 9, 2016, to now have a closing date of March 15, 2016.
The links for the sale will now be opened on Feb. 9th. Notice will be given in February for you to open the catalog then. Those of you
who receive a printed catalog should write the new closing date of March 15, 2016 into that catalog. I am now resting comfortably at home
and expect to be quite ready for the new sale date. Cordially, Fred

I spoke to Fred and his wife Joan a couple times since the incident. She reports that "he's a old tough bird", and I
believe it. He seems to be recovering well and is on the mend. We wish him the best of luck for a continued recovery and a great sale
#124. -Editor
