  DELLQUEST & OTHER EARLY "RED BOOKS"
  

  Chris Fuccione found the following entry in the Library
  catalogue of the American Numismatic Association:
  

  "GA30.D4
  Dellquest, Augustus Wilfrid.
  Burt's United States coin book ...
  3rd, 6th ed. New York, Blue Ribbon Books, 1935, 1940.
  73p. scattered illus. U.S. "
  

  Kenneth Bressett writes: "It is always fun to start off each
  week reading your informative newsletter. They just keep
  getting better and better.
  

  The recent piece from Neil Shafer about his 1935 Red Book
  brought back fond memories of the many friendly one-upmanship
  contests that we have waged for decades. I may have bested
  him this time: I have a Red Book dated 1889 and the title is
  "Rare Coins," and it is the fifth edition. I recall that the
  publication went on for many more years after that. It is hard
  bound with a red cover that is very similar in color to the first
  few editions of the more familiar Yeoman Red Book.
  

  "Rare Coins" was published by Wm. von Bergen for his
  company Numismatic Bank of Boston. It was essentially a
  buying price guide for coins that he wanted, but it also included
  information about U.S. and world coins as well as Colonial
  paper money, tokens and even a smattering of ancient coins."
