Katens’ Auction No. 83
THE KATEN CONSIGNMENT OF NUMISMATIC LITERATURE
Before we start the catalogue, Laurese and I want to thank our friends who
have been with us for a long time and our newer friends who started with us for the
first time with the advent of the first of six catalogues of the KATEN NUMISMATIC
LIBRARY in March 1994. We were delighted with our solicitation for a bound copy
of the six sales winding up with a record number, 85 (84+#100), who had each paid
$100.00. Over half of the subscriptions were received in 1994 paying for a product
that would not be available until August 1996.
Our heartfelt thanks to our friends and customers who made the above possible.
We believe it sets a record. To my knowledge no dealer has sold as many bound
copies in this country. Bound copies had the recipient’s name and subscription
number on the front cover in gilt.
For the record: We retained 5 copies. Numbers 1 and 2 for the Katens, Number
3 to our great grand daughter Miss Katen Manion, now 5 years old, Number 4 to
Margo Russell and Number 5 to Grover Criswell.
And now for Auction Sale N“ 83.
