NEW BOOK: ONE COLLECTOR...ONE BANKNOTE

Marielle Leblanc of CBG also submitted information on another new book, this one on the topic of collecting banknotes. Thank you! -Editor

Marielle adds:

This could be also the opportunity to present also the latest book of our publishing house Les Editions Chevau-Légers : "Un collectionneur...un billet" (One collector...one banknote). This book is not an price guide but simply a compilation of passionnate collectors answering this simple question "If there should stay just one banknote, which one would you choose ?"

Below is information from the publisher's web site, with the help of Google Translate. -Editor

Every human on the planet has a unique relationship to objects. There are those who accompany us daily and others more punctually. Not all objects have the same identity and the same power of attraction. Some will never make sense and others will be very valuable to us.

As far as the subject of this book is concerned, the objects we are going to talk about are banknotes! In the pages that follow, about thirty tickets have been selected to tell you a more personal story through the testimony of passionate collectors.

The idea of this book germinated in my mind when I showed my collection to friends for the first time. I was delighted and proud to present my binders, until one of the hundreds of cuts carefully classified in their plastic sleeves asked me which of my bills I preferred? I was disappointed, like frozen. It seemed impossible to answer. It was therefore naturally tempting for me to investigate and test other collectors on this fundamental question: "And if you were to have only one banknote, which one would you choose?"

Interesting question, one that could vex many a collector. If you could choose just one item from your current collection, what would it be? And how would you make your choice? -Editor
