DANSCO LIBRARY AND PRESERVATION UPDATE

I wanted to share an update with you and your readers on my Dansco library and preservation project. As mentioned in my previous E-Sylum update, I had around 200 albums and was aiming to collect one of every album Dansco has ever produced. Today I am happy to report that I have now collected one of every album that Dansco has ever listed for sale in their catalog since 1939.

My collection now stands at over 700 albums & folders. Including prototype albums, vintage editions, and all of the Continental Line series.

 

 

Readers can check out a video walkthrough of my library here on Instagram.

A big part of my collection recently came from the late David Lange's estate. His collection was quite extensive and I'm proud to say that they are now in my library. I am still keeping an eye out for odd and one-off custom albums that Dansco has made for various coin shops and clubs around the country. If readers happen to have one, please do reach out! I am working through documenting my collection and will update you when I am done.

 

Lastly, if folks would like to learn more about Dansco and are happening to attend the ANA National Money Show in March, I will be giving a presentation about Dansco called "Guns, Gamblers & Grains: The Untold History of Dansco Specialty Albums".
