NBS Podcast Features Literature Collector Dan Hamelberg
The latest episode of the NBS Bibliotalk podcast, "Collection Highlights Continued, with Dan Hamelberg" is now available on the NBS website and other popular podcasting platforms such as Buzzsprout. Dan needs no introduction to those familiar with numismatic literature collecting, and in this episode shares another round of highlights from his unparalleled library.
Recorded on June 21, Dan begins with the tale of an unlikely connection between B. Max Mehl's printing blocks and Martin Gengerke's American Numismatic Auctions. Discussion of the F.C.C. Boyd inventory of the Col. Green collection follows, along with background on the colonel's mother, Hetty Green, the so-called "witch of Wall Street." From there Dan presents numismatic-themed manuscript documents including letters of U.S. Mint Directors and Engravers. This portion of the interview (part 1 of 2) finishes with an Ephraim Brasher-signed letter, of the few known items signed by Brasher. Part 2 of the interview will be released in due course.
The NBS podcast is hosted and produced by Lianna Spurrier of Numismatic Marketing.
