Hi Guys,
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 After perusing the Kolbe Fanning catalog I receive=
d yesterday, I=20
paused to think about my library.=C2=A0 Am I a bibliophile?=C2=A0 What is a=
=20
bibliophile?=C2=A0 Both questions I have no answer for.=C2=A0 I consider my=
=20
library a working reference library.=C2=A0 Diane constantly tells me that I=
=20
don't need any more books - that I can't possibly read everything I have=20
in my lifetime.=C2=A0 I remind her it is a reference library and the materi=
al=20
is available when I need to read it.
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 That being said, I have beautiful Quarterman repri=
nts of Crosby and=20
Maris, and a number of reprints of rare books.=C2=A0 These are perfect for=
=20
research and I can mark them up with notes in the margins and not worry=20
about the book's value.=C2=A0 I don't need to spend hundreds or thousands f=
or=20
an original copy.=C2=A0 There are some books that don't have reprints such =
as=20
Dickeson, but may be available online.=C2=A0 The Newman Numismatic Portal i=
s=20
digitizing many numismatic works, that will be available for everyone.=C2=
=A0
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 But, I do own an original Crosby and an original M=
aris, and some=20
other original works too.=C2=A0 There is something about holding a nicely=20
bound original book from the 1800's...=C2=A0 The same book that Wayte Raymo=
nd=20
used in his office or home.=C2=A0 The same Maris book that Quarterman used =
to=20
make its reprints...=C2=A0 There is a certain sentimentality that colonial=
=20
collectors have - that's why we attempt to keep pedigree information=20
intact for our coins.=C2=A0 Knowing who possessed the coins before us adds =
to=20
the romance of owning them.=C2=A0 Keeping this information intact for the=20
future owners is a task of love.=C2=A0
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 The same is true for me with some books.=C2=A0 Hav=
ing an original of a=20
classic reference is a thrill.=C2=A0 I have friends that collect books for =
as=20
collectibles.=C2=A0 And then when the time comes, they sell/auction them to=
=20
other book collectors.=C2=A0 When the time comes to part with my library, i=
t=20
will have two markets - those that collect books and those that need=20
working references for their coin collections.=C2=A0 But some snowy evening=
=20
this Winter, you can find me in my recliner, with a fresh pot of coffee=20
and my 1875 Crosby in-hand.=C2=A0 Just another of many ways I enjoy our=20
hobby.
Have fun today!
