    KOLBE HONORED AT ANS DINNER GALA

    Dave Kellogg asked about last week's annual dinner
    gala honoring George Kolbe at the American
    Numismatic Society.

    He writes: "We all know George from his fine numismatic
    literature sales and auctions as well as his contributions to
    The E-sylum. Perhaps known to only those people
    interested in ancient coins and books about them is
    George's monthly contribution to the Celator, a journal of
    ancient and medieval coinage. For many years George
    has written an article entitled "Profiles in Numismatics"
    which describes past scholars whose contributions to
    the subject have formed the body of knowledge from
    which we all benefit today. George has also been an
    active supporter of the ANS Library. It is probably
    due to his achievements in the latter activity that
    prompted his deserving honor last week.

    (The ANS offered a suggestion for those unable to attend
    the dinner but nevertheless wishing to support George;
    a tax-deductible contribution could be made to the ANS
    in honor of Mr. George F. Kolbe. Their address is 96
    Fulton Street, New York, NY 10038.)"

    [Congratulations, George. Take a bow. Were I
    located closer to New York I may have been able to
    attend. Can any of our readers report on the event?
