NUMISMATIST MICROFICHE / MICROFILM SET
Regarding Fred Reeds question about The Numismatist in
microfiche or microfilm, Dave Lange writes: I purchased
a microfiche set of The Numismatist 1888-1979 from the ANA
in that latter year. It was of so-so quality, though I did
use it occasionally. I now have a complete run of bound
hardcopies in my office, so I let my microfiche set go
in one of Fred Lake's sales about three years ago. I don't
recall what it brought, but it wasn't much.George Fitzgerald writes: I purchased the Numismatist in
Microfiche from ANA several years ago. I use it occasionally.Dan Friedus writes: The ANA actually published a set of
The Numismatist on microfiche. As someone who used to work
for a microfilm publisher and has used a lot of microfilm
and fiche for research, I don't think I'm going overboard
in calling the ANA product mediocre at best. Some, if not
all, of it was in negative which was pretty annoying for
looking at images. But the data is there and it takes up
less space than paper.Nancy Green, Librarian of the American Numismatic Association
Writes: The ANA does still have microfiche of (in those days)
The Numismatist. The last year filmed was 1996.- 2005-11-13
