    WILLIAM ASHBROOK 1909 FIXED PRICE LIST AND CATALOG SOUGHT

    Roger Burdette writes: "I am searching for the following items for
    research and hope someone can direct me to copies. Many thanks.

    1. Fixed price list dated February 1909 issued by William Ashbrook,
    Johnstown, Ohio.

    2. Auction catalog Ohio State Numismatic Association, October 28-29,
    1909. Auctioneer was Ray Patton. 745 lots.

    "There will be an article in Coin World (written by Jeff Reichenberger
    and myself) in a month or so that lists most of the original owners of
    the 1907 $10 with normal rim and periods - only 50 survived melting.
    Jeff examined all of Ashbrook's 40-year-long personal diary and
    discovered quite a trove of numismatic information.

    "William Ashbrook acquired more than 1/5 of the total available during
    the 1908 Assay Commission meeting. He also had a huge run of gold proof
    sets bought from a Delaware estate. The private sale and auction were
    of duplicate pieces from his collection. I'd like to know more about
    what he sold in 1909 so I can try to trace a couple of the pieces or
    proof sets to institutional or possibly private owners."
