NBS FUNDRAISING AUCTION
Each year at the ANA World’s Fair of Money, the Numismatic Bibliomania Society conducts a benefit auction to raise funds for the organization. All items sold are donated to the NBS by members and 100% of the proceeds go to the NBS treasury.
This year, we are trying to increase participation in the auction by distributing a catalogue of the sale to all NBS members so that members unable to attend in person can participate. You can
download a PDF of the catalogue here
.
Absentee bids should be sent to David Fanning at
df@numislit.com
by the end of Thursday, August 16. The sale will take place on Friday, August 17 as part of the NBS General Meeting, to be held in Room 117 of the Philadelphia Convention Center from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Please read the terms of sale before bidding.
Thank you for your support of the NBS!
There are some great lots in the sale at multiple pricepoints - literally something for everyone. If you can't attend the sale, please do review the catalog and enter some bids.
