AND THE MOTHER LODE OF TELEPHONE TOKEN INFO
Jose Luis Rubio of Montevideo, Uruguay writes: "As I conduct
the INTERNATIONAL TELEPHONE TOKEN ASSOCIATION
as Executive President, I suggested Sig. Marco Fiumani to join
in E-Sylum and send you an appropriate report on ITALIAN
TELEPHONE TOKEN NOTES.I.T.T.A. works informally only via Electronic Mail. It is
dedicated to helping Telephone Token Students on all
related subjects of tokens, medals, pay-phone and pay-over-the
counter tokens. Some thing as The E-Sylum, but much more
modest as we do not have weekly reports, just when the
subject is available.The point is to update a world-wide Telephone Token Catalogue,
as the last version of one is Henk Groenendijk's, published in the
English language in The Netherlands, January 1989. There are
some good other partial catalogues, like the Brazilian in CD-ROM,
by Helion de Mello e Olivera, which is mostly Portuguese and
English. Bob Gilbert and myself did the translation into English,
which has some copying mistakes, but is readable and a must for
the about 900 different Brazilian Phone tokens.Sig. Marco Fiumany is looking for a better reading copy than
the ones I have, of Targonsky's 1968 and Earl's Telephone
token catalogues. With today's computers much better copies
can be obtained.Just as well I am building a related Bibliography, covering
Telephone Token books and magazine articles. At these last I
sincerely need much help, as them cover all language written
articles with when and where published information. It also
covers auction catalogues with interesting pieces.I will be happy to E-Mail interested parties an application
form, which also points the general structure of I.T.T.A.,
which is requested to be snail mailed back. Contributions are
voluntary. Any question will be answered with pleasure.
