The NBS's The Asylum's Summer 2022 Issue
Table of Contents
Message from the NBS President, Tom Harrison Plans are underway for this year's NBS events at the ANA World's Fair of Money in Rosemont, Illinois. The convention will provide a number of opportunities for members to support the NBS and share their enthusiasm with fellow bibliophiles. The Symposium will feature our esteemed Treasurer, large cent authority Chuck Heck, discussing his new book Die States of 1794 United States Large Cents. Chuck will provide a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the research and production of his book. Again this year, the NBS will be hosting our club table. We invite everyone to stop by and view a few of the highlights that will be offered in our charity auction, purchase an NBS commemorative coffee mug and share your mania for numismatic literature. Creating an exhibit is a wonderful opportunity to provide the greater community with the benefits of building a numismatic library. Our General Meeting will feature The Asylum author awards and our charity auction. We are again grateful to David Fanning for graciously agreeing to accept and catalog items for this event. The auction will be held at the NBS General Meeting. While we appreciate all donations, we especially need items valued over $100. Please contact David at df@numislit.com before sending your donations. Donations can be sent to: David Fanning, 141 W. Johnstown Road, Gahanna, Ohio 43230 and should be received by June 30th. The charity auction helps provide the necessary funds for our award winning-journal, The Asylum, and the NBS bimonthly podcast. Thank you for your continued generous support of the NBS! This year we would like to invite members to bring an item or two to share during an informal time at the conclusion of official business at the General Meeting. Bring a rare work, a special inscribed book or even a whimsical item. It will be fun to see what others bring, but the real goal is to provide a bit of social time to get better acquainted and meet other like-minded enthusiasts. Please watch for further convention details in The E-Sylum as times and room assignments are confirmed. May your library provide investigation, discovery and most of all, enjoyment. The Asylum Awards NBS members can vote on The Asylum author awards: the Joel J. Orosz Award for best article of the year in The Asylum and the Jack Collins Award for the best article by a first-time author in The Asylum. Voting closes June 30, 2022.
