JULIAN SATIRICAL MEDALS COMPLETED
Steve Pellegrini writes: "I have finally managed after years of
effort to complete a set of the political-satirical medals created
and published by RW. Julian from 1977-1981. As the result
of a mention of the medals in E-Sylum I was offered a pristine
little group of the issues I was missing. While I was cataloguing
these new acquisitions I had the opportunity to review the entire
series. It struck me that the topical concerns expressed in these
medallic editorials of a quarter century ago are the exact same
topics still in the fore of America's national dialogue today. Mr.
Julian has written of his series, "The satirical medals were
intended as a permanent memorial to those issues that ought
not to be forgotten..." I'd say that by that and any other
measure he succeeded admirably. Not to mention his once
again having enriched the US numismatic series by his work
and unique intellectual gifts."- 2004-06-20
