It's that time of year, and the American Numismatic Association's annual World's Fair of Money convention is approaching. NBS President Tom Harrison submitted this preview of club events at the show.

Here are a few highlights of the Numismatic Bibliomania Society's events at the upcoming ANA
Convention in Rosemont the week of August 16th to 20th. Tuesday through Friday the NBS will
host our club table (#730). We hope you will stop by to view a few highlights from Friday's
charity auction, purchase a NBS commemorative coffee mug to support the NBS and, most of
all, share your enthusiasm for the numismatic literature hobby.
The NBS Board Meeting will be held on Thursday from 11:30 to 1:00 in room 11. Our
Symposium will Immediately follow the Board Meeting at 1:00 also in room 11. We are
delighted to have NBS Treasurer and early American coppers authority, Chuck Heck, speaking
about his marvelous new book Die States of 1794 United States Large Cents.
The General Meeting will be Friday at 11:30 in room 12. The meeting will feature The Asylum
author awards, a video tour of the extensive library of NBS Historian, Joel Orosz and our all-
important charity auction. The auction catalog will be posted on the NBS website
www.coinbooks.org. David Fanning cataloged the sale and will accept absentee bids by phone
(614)256-8915 or email
df@numislit.com until 5PM central time Thursday, August 18th.
If your
schedule permits, we would like to invite those attending the General Meeting to remain after the
formal meeting to enjoy an informal social time. We encourage you to bring a special item from
your library to share or just stay for the fellowship. While it will be fun to see what others bring,
the goal is to provide an opportunity to connect with your fellow biblio enthusiasts.
Thank you to everyone who has stepped up to serve and support the NBS during our annual
events. We look forward to seeing you at the NBS events!
