ADVERTISER GUIDELINES
1. Advertising offering modern
copies, restrikes, reproductions or
fantasy pieces which violate the
Hobby Protection Act is not
acceptable.
2. For mail bid sales set minimum
bids on any item you won’t sell for
less, or set an auction-wide minimum,
different minimums on different parts
of the auction, or no minimums at all.
Avoid “ridiculous bids refused” or
similar phrases – you can’t assume
that everyone knows what constitutes
a “ridiculous bid.”
3. Run an honest auction. Don’t
advertise items you don’t have; don’t
artificially force bidders to bid more
claiming a higher bid when there isn’t
one, don’t over grade your items, and
sell all items that meet your published
minimum and are the high bid.
4. Send out invoices promptly.
5. Send out merchandise promptly
after receipt of payment.
6. Treat your bidders the way you
would want to be treated if you were
the one doing the bidding.
USUAL MAIL BID SALE RULES
1. Mail Bid Sales close on the last
Saturday of the month shown on the
cover.
2. Bids will not be reduced.
3. Postage and insurance costs will be
added to invoices.
4. Bid by auction reference and lot
number.
5. No buy or unlimited bids accepted.
6. No buyer’s commission will be
charged by the seller.
7. Terms: Cash upon receipt of
invoice. Invoice to be mailed by
seller within ten days after the closing
date.
8. Goods to be shipped by seller
within ten days of receiving payment.
9. Any lot may be returned for valid
reason within ten days after receipt.
10. The seller has the right to reject a
bid for any reason whatsoever.
11. Bid only the amount that you are
willing to pay, and then honor that
bid if you are the high bidder.
12. Please Note: The seller may state
in the ad any exceptions to these
rules. Be aware of any special
conditions desired by the seller.

REPORT
Merle Avila, President

(707) 824-4811
[email protected]
Wow! What a great show! Thanks to all of you
who contributed so much to make the show the
great success it was. It takes the significant efforts
of many people working in sync with someone to
pull it all together. In that regard, Bob Campbell
did us proud. Everything from location, food,
advertising, food, security, food, excellent hotels,
food, etc. I probably gained 5 pounds! Fred
Holabird’s auction, with a catered dinner both
nights, was terrific. We had a good annual
meeting with lots of positive input as well as
reports from the Treasurer, the Secretary, and
the Editor, as well as several comments from the
board and membership. We thanked Jeff
Smurthwaite, Richard Greever and Tom Carson for
our faster download of Talkin’ Tokens and Tom
again for all the previous Talkin’ Tokens he
scanned and added to the NTCA website.
Dr. Tony Chibarro presented the Annual James J.
Curto Award (see his special report in this month’s
Talkin’ Tokens) and I presented the Literary
Awards. A short commentary also appears in
Talkin’ Tokens this month about them.
We had only one formal proposal for next year’s
show and the Executive Board wants to extend
the deadline for show proposals until October 1st.
If you would like to make a proposal, please e-mail
2 October 2012
me ASAP. The Executive Committee will decide
and I will let you know in my November message
where we will be assembling next year.
I think there will be a write-up on this show in
detail in this month’s issue but again I want to
personally thank Fred Holabird and his very
capable staff for an excellent auction. Fred also
donated 500.00 to NTCA. Many thanks, Fred. We
really appreciated that. Bob, again thank you to
you and your staff for an awesome job.
Remember to sign up a new NTCA member or
write a article to receive three months extended
membership or six months for electronic delivery.
You might just win next year’s Literary Award.

I had a great time at our annual show in Salt Lake
City! I found numerous pieces to add to my
collection, met and talked with many members,
and got to participate in an excellent auction by
Holabird-Kagin. Once again Bob Campbell did an
excellent job; the bourse floor was full and seemed
to have an abundance of activity. I’m already
looking forward to next year!

2012 SLC NTCA Review: It was great but...
By Alan V. Weinberg
First, I'm writing this aboard my flight home from NTCA at Salt Lake City UT en route to Los Angeles so all my
recollections are still fresh and accurate.
That said, I want to stress that these observations and opinions of NTCA 2012 are mine and others' perceptions
may differ. Still, my expressed opinions are tempered by my many often lengthy multiple conversations at the
show with fellow longtime dealers / collectors / attendees like Mike Miller, Ron Lerch, Bob Campbell, Dick
Ainsworth, Larry Elman, Tony Chibbaro, Roy Rubick , Fred Holabird and many others.
Next, I want to thank two gentlemen whose constant hands-on attention to the success of the show and to the
NTCA organization as a whole is beyond reproach: Bob Campbell - this was Bob's 4th ATCO / NTCA- hosted show
over more than 1 1/2 decade, and NTCA President-going into his 2nd and final year, Merle Avila.
Merle, despite heading his own successful architectural firm full time and Bob heading his All About Coins shop
with frequent nationwide show attendance and hosting his own local SLC area coin shows : both seem to have
unlimited energy and enthusiasm in our collectible field . These two guys are amazing on top of both being deadserious advanced collectors in their respective specialties. And they both were quite active participants during
the show. Clearly, for love of the hobby.
Now, as to the show itself. Two NTCA Talkin' Tokens issues ago, Bob's AAC staff ill-advisedly issued a show
publicity advisory that all of 12 "dealers" had signed up for the show bourse - two months before the show!
When I read that I was concerned with the negative impact this unintentionally dismal advisory would have on
both attendance and future bourse table contracts. Sure enough, I almost immediately started receiving emails
4 October 2012
from longtime dealers / collectors who always attended that they were extremely hesitant to attend or
downright not attending! I emailed both Merle and Bob of the seemingly widespread negative reaction to only
12 tables being sold and they both immediately took steps to reverse the initial "first image". Still, the damage
was done. Although in the end there were 55 bourse tables sold. Bob advised me he received applications &
checks for 25 bourse tables in the final 17 days preceding the show! Talk about last minute.
This initial advisory, together with the required
approx. $200 - in total w/cases and lightsadvanced full payment for a table (previous
years a $50 deposit would hold a table, the
balance due at the show), the record high
airfares with jet fuel at a peak, and the broken
economy caused attendance to fall well below
expectations with such show stalwarts as the
Nebraska and Texas area sellers/collectors,
Jerry Schaeper (who doesn't like to fly
anyway), Norris Wahl, Reese Scott, Mike
Greenspan, former President Richard Greever,
Billy Kiser, Jerry Adams, and others not
attending. I'd say show attendance appeared
to be 25% down. But those who did come, and there were many, spent a lot of money, renewed friendships,
increased their knowledge, and traded or sold pieces they no longer needed. Bourse business was brisk
throughout most of the show, slowing down Sunday morning as many picked up and paid for their Holabird
auction lots. At times Friday and Saturday many dealers literally had all the business they could handle at their
bourse tables.
Such items exchanged hands as a superb 1 of 2 collectible condition Charleston Arizona Territory tokens, an
unlisted Shelby Mont Saloon trade mirror, two (yes , 2) different self-evident North Carolina saloon (yes, they
both said "saloon" ) tokens , an ex. rare "yellow" celluloid San Jose CA trans token from the John Coffee estate
transportation token collection (brought
intact to the show by Bob Campbell's firm), a
large brass Santa Fe House old-style maverick
depicting a detailed locomotive with coal
tender good-for that turned my head, a
Palmetto Saloon German silver maverick , a
Newport News VA saloon token,, a superb
silver medal awarded for the 1898-99 Span
Amer War by the state of Utah , an old-time
advanced Idaho town collection sold intact
for a bundle, a medal made out of milk I'd
never seen before, etc. Not to speak of a
splendid offering of rare Utah towns and
saloons auctioned by Fred Holabird with
some individual tokens " hammering" (plus
20% buyer's fee) for $1500-1900 apiece.
Talkin' Tokens 5
Each day, Friday to Sunday, Bob Campbell had a lunch buffet - superb food at affordable prices - and a free
dinner buffet (costing Bob $12 per dinner, hence the $200 bourse fee for a 6 ' table) accompanying Fred
Holabird's auction. Restaurant -quality fine food actually worth the $12 that dealers rec'd included in their
bourse fee.
I enjoyed myself immensely as did virtually anyone I saw. No complaints, no negative murmuring such as one too
often hears at coin shows and antique shows where attendance is way down. Those that chose not to attend, for
one reason or another, really did miss out on the proverbial opportunity of the year to sell or add to their
collections. No kidding.
The NTCA Board is, for the next 30 days, considering 2013 show host proposals from the West Coast (Nevada) to
mid-America (No Dak / Mn, Colo, Okla). I like Reno a lot for its easy relatively inexpensive flights from any U.S.
point, to the availability of a Holabird auction, to the numerous hotels and convention halls and rooms, and the
entertainment attractions for the collectors' wives and kids. But that decision is in the hands of the Board and
will be decided by the time you read this. Bob says he can't handle next year's show as his wife will kill him!
Maybe.
Oh, the Board revealed 41 new (not renewed or returning but brand new) members signed up this year and the
mid 400's membership assures the cont'd viability of NTCA. President Merle Avila is into his final and 2nd year in
office and he'll be running for a Board position next Sept and so we need someone to step up to the plate and
take on the joys and grief of heading up this organization without the complaints of the few malcontents who
delight in badgering the officers. Surprisingly, 75% of the readership still prefers to receive their TT issues by
hard copy in the regular mail. As an exclusively online copy recipient, I must admit to enjoying sampling a hard
copy at the show. It reads "differently".
SLC weather? Very peculiar. Only a few weeks ago much of the state was in flames from a severe drought.
During the show we had intermittent heavy downpours with lightning and thunder.
My thanks to Paul Avila for providing excellent images of the bourse and auction / buffet site which will add
immeasurably to the review of the show.
This is my opinion. AVW

2011-2012 Literary Awards
It is my pleasure to announce the winners of the 2011-2012 NTCA Literary
Awards. The Executive Committee has reviewed the articles written for Talkin’
Tokens from September 2011-August 2012 and selected the best three authors.
First, I would like to thank our editor, Jeff Smurthwaite, who month after month
churns out Talkin’ Tokens with precision and innovation despite always facing
looming deadlines. Without his dedicated work, we would not have the
publication we all enjoy reading. There are also other regular contributors who
publish each month. Billy Kiser creates the On The Net Column each month,
providing knowledgeable and insightful commentary on the tokens sold through
eBay and other online sites. Luke Johnson puts together our maverick pages,
keeps track of all the new listings and attributions as they are reported. Bob
Smith creates a cartoon each month for our enjoyment and Norris Wahl does
our classified ads. In addition, several of you provide frequent, if irregular,
commentary reviews. These all fall outside the scope of the Literary Awards, but
our journal would be lacking without these contributions. A sincere Thank You
to these individuals!
Now to the 2011-2012 awards:
Thirty articles, written by 13 authors, were reviewed for consideration. This is the
largest number of authors to be considered in many years, if not ever.
First Place honors go to Phil Wenstrand for his series of articles on “Arizona
Token Legends” They were published October 2011, January 2012, May 2012
and June 2012.
Second Place is awarded to Jerry Adams for his article on “Pictorial Storecards
of Shady Ladies” published on September 2011.
Third Place goes to Jim Piacenti for his articles on “Ladd, Illinois” – “Coal, The
Great Italian Emigration” and “ Torri’s Ice Cream Parlor” published February 2012
and July 2012
The First Place award winner received $50 toward his membership. Second
Place received $25 towards his membership and Third Place received $10
towards his membership.
Thank you to everyone who submitted articles in 2011-2012.
Merle Avila – for the Executive Committee

Greever Receives 2012 Curto Award
Richard Greever, of Sunnyvale, California, received the 2012 James J. Curto Award this past Labor Day
weekend at the NTCA Annual Token Show in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Curto Award, presented annually
by the National Token Collectors Association, is named in honor of James J. Curto, pioneering exonumic
author and cataloger. The purpose of the award is to encourage excellence in the research and
cataloging of trade tokens and is presented each year for the best book on tokens published during the
previous calendar year. Greever won the award for his book entitled “Slug Plate Dies: A Study”, which
was published in August 2011 and printed by the author. The 8x11 inch soft-cover volume catalogs
hundreds of early US trade tokens struck with multi-part dies. The study is 135 pages in length and
features scores of color photographs of tokens from the late 1800s and early 1900s. It can be ordered
from the author at 1239 Rousseau Dr., Sunnyvale, CA 94087. Email: [email protected].
James J. Curto (1903-1993) was one of the
first numismatic authors to focus on United
States trade tokens. He was a charter
member of the Token & Medal Society and
served as its second president (1962-63).
Curto was a prolific researcher and author in
the field of exonumia, and wrote one of the
first monographs on US trade tokens,
“Sutlers and Their Tokens”, in 1946. He
followed this with “Indian & Post Trader
Tokens” (1951), “Post Exchange, Canteen
and Other Military Tokens” (1954), “Military
Tokens of the United States” (1970), and
“Military Tokens of the United States II”
(1978). Curto was a resident of Grosse
Pointe, Michigan for most of his life.
James J. Curto as he appeared in 1962 on a
medallic issue of the Token & Medal Society.
Also receiving recognition from the Curto Award Committee were two other books published in 2011.
"Florida Tokens: A Twenty Year Supplement" by C.R. Clark and "North Dakota Merchant Tokens
Reference Manual (2nd edition)" by Bruce Foss both received Honorable Mentions from the award
committee.
NTCA’s Curto Award Committee is actively soliciting nominations for the 2013 Award. The award is
open to any NTCA member who publishes a book on tokens during the calendar year 2012. If any
members are aware of books or catalogs which fit the criteria for the award, please contact the Curto
Award Committee Chairman Tony Chibbaro at [email protected] or 803-252-1881.

300757893807 (Spanish Fort, TX?) Good For – A –
Cowboy – Saloon – Drink / (Steer Pictorial) ($674).
One of the classic Texas-style steer pictorials,
attributed to Spanish Fort, Texas. Also from Texas:
“Longhorn Club – Goldsmith, Tex. / 5c” (Item
#230847301662; $898).
10 October 2012
300756894374 Dona Ana, N.M., Dona Ana Saloon –
De La O - & - De La O – Prop. / Good For – One –
Drink ($733).
A astounding (and quite frankly,
inexplicable) price, given the fact that the exact same
token sold just a few months ago for under $400.
110934097329 Seward, Neb., Meet Your Friends –
At – Henry Heumann’s – Good For 10c In Trade
($483). A nice Nebraska mirror.
251141833746 Leadville, Colo., The Old Office Bar –
Good For 12 1/2c In Trade ($626). Nice Colorado
pocket mirror, with some spotting to the reverse
(mirror) side, but otherwise in pretty nice condition.
Don’t see very many Colorado pocket mirrors on
ebay. Any location besides Leadville and it would
have surely sold much higher.
290766408168 Chico, Mont., Conlin - & Foss / Good
For – One – Drink ($684). One of several rare
Montana tokens this month. The demand (and,
consequently, the prices) seem to be high for
Montana tokens right now. Also from Montana: “E. &
E. Pool Room – Saltese, Mont. / 12 1/2c” (Item
#221103321524; $410); “Belton Mercantile Co. –
Belton, Mont. / 5c” (Item #180946577106; $384); “Big

$899); “S-B & Co. – Coffee Creek, Mont / 25c” (Item
#180967889786; $317); “David Ledbetter – Neihart
(Mont.) / Good For A Smile” (Item #180967909458;
$218).
251126770287 Honolulu (HI), Pantheon – Saloon /
Seattle – rainier – Beer ($712). One of the more rare
varieties of the well-known Pantheon Saloon tokens.
Another token from the same merchant also sold this
month: “Pantheon Saloon – Good For – One –
Draught – Beer / Enterprise Brewing Co. – Jim Dodd,
Agent – Honolulu” (Item #251126780641; $435). Also
from Hawaii: “Post Exchange – Fort Armstrong –
Honolulu, T.H. / 5c” (Item #251125523213; $315).
190718215592 East Oakland (CA), The Yosemite –

Oakland. Also from California: “J.M. McCaffrey &

Sierraville, Cal. / 10c” (Item #130752785316; $431);
“Depot of Recruits & Casuals – Angel Island – Post
Exchange / 5c” (Item #221109446589; $550).
120964312633 Sonora, Cal., Hotel Victoria Bar, M.E.
Sanford – Good For 12 1/2c In Trade (Pocket mirror)
($1413). An almost pristine mirror from one of the
California gold rush towns. They don’t come in much
nicer condition than this.
Talkin' Tokens 11
300762637043
Valdez, AK, Native Gold Alaska
Copper Block Buffet / Good For – 1.00 – In –
Merchandise (embedded gold nugget) ($635). These
usually sell higher, but the condition on this one is the
lowest grade of any that I have seen.
140829999923 Sheboygan, Wis., Foeste Hotel Co. /
Good For One Ride From – Hotel Foeste – to Depot
($405). Something a bit different, and quite neat if
you ask me.
180959775130 (Juneau, AK), Peerless Cigar – Stand
–Henry Berry – Prop. / Good For – 12 ½ - Cents – In
Trade ($935). Pretty high price for a maverick,
regardless of location. Also from Alaska: “Ophir –
Cigar – Store / 25c” (Item #230838560936; $1005).
160867566596 Monroe, LA, Crescent Saloon – Good
For – 12 1/2c – In Trade / (Mfg. Name in Tiny Letters)
($533). Don’t see very many saloon tokens from
Louisiana.
110933662107 South Omaha, Neb., You Get This at
– Nebraska – Store for men and boys – Shoe and
th
Clothing House – Cor. 25 and N. ($327). (Encased
1915 penny) (pocket mirror).
120976729959 Enoree, S.C., Enoree Mfg. Company
– 1 / Good For – 1 – Dollar – In Merchandise ($310).
12 October 2012
261082848460 (Arizona). An extremely rare Arizona
sutler token in the 50 cent denomination. The seller
had no clue what they had. It was on ebay for only a
couple hours before it was removed, and was almost
certainly sold in a private off-ebay transaction. The
starting bid was just $10. Who knows what the seller
ended up getting for it. And who knows what it would
have sold for had it been allowed to stay up for
auction. Easily a 4-figure token.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1. The right is reserved to refuse bids
from any bidder for whatever reason.
2. No telephoned bids will be
accepted, but I will try to answer
questions about specific lots by
telephone or other means should you
require more information. For the only
exception – see #10 below.
3. Each lot is graded (mostly my
grading—see Token Grading System
table below) and assigned (mostly by the
consignor) an Estimated Value dollar
range or a Minimum Bid. Consider that
grading is an art and not a science. Two
people may examine the same piece
and reasonably come to a different
grading opinion. Perhaps I will even
examine the same piece at different
times and assign a different grade.
4. Lots with a Minimum Bid (MB$xx) will
not be sold for less than the amount
listed. Lots with an Estimated Value
may sell at a price higher or lower than
indicated by the valuation provided.
5. Each lot is expected to have a sales
price of $10.00 or greater. A minimum
bid of $5.00 applies to each lot unless
specified otherwise.
6. A 10% buyer’s fee will be added to
the invoice total for lots won. Lots must
be paid for in full before shipment will
be made. Immediate payment (within
10 days) is required. Winning bids will
be shipped by insured or registered mail.
Mailing charges will be added to the
invoice. Invoices will be mailed shortly
after the closing of this mail bid sale.
7. The right is reserved to reject any bid
or withdraw any lot, for any reason.
8. Bid the amount you are willing to pay
for each lot. There will be no bid
reduction except for bids of $250 or
greater. Bids of $250 or greater will be
reduced to the next bidding increment
above the second high bid except:
a. No bid will be reduced below $200
b. No bid will be reduced by more
than 50%
9. Mailed, faxed, or e-mailed advance
bids must be received on or before the
closing date specified. The receipt of emailed and faxed bids will be
acknowledged with a returned e-mail or
fax.
10. If you have previously submitted
bids by mail, fax or e-mail, you may
telephone or e-mail to inquire about
the current high bids for those
previously submitted bids for lots
where your initial bid was $50 or
greater. You may then raise your bids
above the current high bids by the
appropriate bidding increments if you
desire. This is the only telephone
bidding that will be accepted! Such
inquiries will be accepted up to Sunday,
October 28 until 6PM California time or
later until 15 minutes passes without a
call.
11. In the event of a tie in the winning
bid amount, the earliest submitted bid
will be awarded the lot.
12. The prices realized will be submitted
for publication in a future issue of Talkin’
Tokens.
13. Returns will be accepted for any lots
with significant error in the description,
but only within 5 days of receipt date.
After 14 days from the invoice date all
lots will be considered sold and not
returnable. Information about
attributions and catalog data is provided
for your convenience only, and you
must not rely upon it – it will not be a
justifiable reason for return should
there be a discrepancy. Please do your
homework and check that information
yourself.
14. You are responsible for errors in
your bidding. Be sure to double-check
your bid sheet!
15. All material is unconditionally
guaranteed to be genuine unless
otherwise specified.
16. Abbreviations in common use for
describing tokens are employed in this
listing.
17. Illustrations are of the actual lot, but
may not be actual size—check the listing
for size information. High quality color
photos of lots pictured in this listing or
lots indicated by (photo) after the lot
number may be viewed at the photo
hosting site:
http://collector-ca.smugmug.com
Pictures of additional lots will be posted
to that site upon request.
18. Localities and/or states in ( ) are not
on the piece. Objects pictured and
comments are also given in ( ) or [..].
The locality is underlined for your
convenience. Attributes of special
interest are delineated by bold type.
Comments may be included in italic
type. Cataloging information is provided
whenever available.
19. Placing a bid in this sale constitutes
acceptance of the above terms and
conditions.

resale certificate.

Elba Land Company was incorporated in 1910
by Frank Giannini, an early resident of Tulare
County. It is reported that he employed 150
men at was then a new winery near Tulare
producing both wine and brandy. Giannini also
pursued other agricultural interests including
fruit and alfalfa.
Both Mapquest and Google Earth reference the
location of Elba just outside the city limits of
Tulare, but this now appears to be agricultural
land and not residential. Elba is shown as a
locality on the USGS 1927 Tulare quadrangle.

MODERN FANTASY
These highly imaginative pieces were probably
made circa 1960’s, but are not seen being
offered today. All have an applied patina to
suggest being old. Some years ago when I
spoke with an individual involved in these
things, he told me that the patina was
generated by soaking in a barrel of horse urine.

Civil War Store Cards
from the estate of
Stephen L. Tanenbaum
I am in the process of selling a substantial part of the Civil War store card collection of the late
Steve Tanenbaum and have prepared a listing of items for sale. These include tokens of Connecticut,
Illinois, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Tennessee.
For more than 40 years Steve gathered these, continually improving and upgrading. The vast
majority of the tokens are Mint State, many certified by NGC (which Steve was in the midst of doing)
and others still in his 2x2 cardboard holders. Rarity-9 (2 to 4 known) tokens abound as do, believe it or
not, R-10 (unique) tokens and unlisted varieties.
Numismatic strikes in copper-nickel, overstrikes on Indian Head cents, rarities with various
Stanton reverses (1042 and 1047 gems in abundance), mint errors, “rare towns,” brockages, and more
await your consideration. Many, once sold, are not likely to come on the market again for many years.
That said the majority of the tokens are highly affordable and priced from the tens of dollars into
the low hundreds.
If you will send me an e-mail request I will send you my latest list by return e-mail. Nearly all are
one-of-a-kind in the estate and are available on a first-come, first served basis.
Thank you for your interest!

THE GRAPE VINE SALOON
Santa Rosa, California
By Merle Avila
11 - 13 Mendocino Avenue
Located in the Dougherty - Shea Building
A. B. Stump had a saloon at 104 Main Street from 1885 to 1889. In 1890 he and William
J. T. Orr formed a partnership and opened the Grape Vine Saloon on Mendocino Avenue.
The address is listed as 313 Mendocino Avenue, between Fourth and Fifth Streets in the
1905 city registry. Their partnership lasted until 1907.
In 1907, the business was sold to Walter Jones and John O. McIntosh who were partners
for only about 6 months with Jones selling his share and becoming partners with
Mathews at the J & M Saloon. McIntosh ran the Grape Vine until 1911 when he sold to
Dan Pickin who had been a shoemaker. Pickin continued the business until Prohibition.

Why should someone do a book if they can’t sell it?
If I had sold my TRADE TOKENS of TENNESSEE book for $500 each I would not have made money. Years
& years of going to coin & token shows, motels, food, flights, flea mkts., gas, phone calls when there were no
discounts, postage, 1000’s of hours henpecking because I don’t type.
I wrote every historical society, genealogical society, & newspaper in all 95 counties which most counties have
more than 1 paper. There was postage on each envelope, plus an envelope & hand addressing every one. Also
enclosing an s.a.s.e. in every envelope or a self addressed post card.
No one who has not done a book knows anything about the labor & cost involved. I guess that’s why other
state token books aren’t out. One state book is still not out after a promise in NTCA 15 yrs. ago that it would
be out in 2 yrs. Plus when you put out a book people withhold information so when your book comes then
they have all sorts of unlisted tokens & start gouging you for high prices for tokens.
I have a ‘working copy’ of my book on my computer with many new towns, merchants, denominations, &
varieties listed. With all the tokens being added to the database collectors have the advantage of information
without putting forth a single effort . Go ahead & put out a book & find out the problems. I would not
advise anyone to do a book due to all the above reasons.
Below is from a friend who just confirms my
statements:
Not everyone uses the internet. Look how long
IKO needed to get all of the Ohio books sold.
Years !!!! I think there is still a need for books, but
print is on its way out. What with the notebooks &
tablets. My wife reads constantly on hers, hasn’t
bought a printed book in months. She pays yahoo
or whoever to get access to the books. I could use a
computer file of it more than the printed copy.
Being on the road so much it would be a lot more
helpful when I purchase a token.

A MINNESOTA TOKEN BOOK IS IN THE WORKS!
I need your assistance to make this project a success. If you have any number
of Minnesota merchant tokens, saloon tokens, lumber tokens, land tokens, dairy
tokens, brewery tokens, mavericks, or any other good-for tokens of any kind,
please send me your list. The maverick column in this magazine contains the
descriptive format that would be ideal to provide the needed information
including composition, millimeter diameter, and shape; however, any and all
information will be accepted. I also need lists of encased coins, masonic
pennies, transportation tokens, good-for mirrors, ID tags, punch tags, municipal
tokens, and wood or plastic tokens.
All contributors will be given recognition and lavish praise!
I am always interested in buying single tokens or collections of Minnesota
tokens and other better tokens and exonumia of all types. Top prices paid for
worthy material! I am especially seeking nice looking billiard maker tokens. I
also need the following years of Minnesota Dun or Bradstreet business
directories: Pre-1865, 1867-68, 1870-72, 1874, 1876, 1880-82, 1884, 1887-88,
1890-92, 1894-97, 1899, 1903, 1906, 1911, 1960-1962 and any years after 1964.
I have been using tokencatalog.com as a predecessor to a Minnesota book
project hoping this will speed up the process. As many of you have probably
noticed, Minnesota by far has the most numerous listings of any state on the
site. Unfortunately, much additional information and photos are needed to
make this a more complete project. If you have tokens that are listed as
needing photos, feel free to add the photos or contact me if you wish to have
my assistance adding your photos.
I would like to thank all NTCA members for their continued patience and
assistance with this extremely massive cataloging project.
