If you go, take some photos to post and bring back your stories! Just be aware that there are dealers out there with big stacks of material in...
One more suggestion -- check eBay's completed listings and search for the stock/bond titles before you buy. You might be surprised how much less...
Good old Frank "I Am the Law" Hague -- I have one of those bonds, too. :-) So, while I support your enthusiasm for this area of collecting I'd...
Sadly, these rarely bring much above bullion value when I see them on eBay. There just doesn't seem to be much additional value attached to the...
Incidentally, we decided at FUN that the SCCS would also set up a table at the Portland ANA show in March, staffed mainly, I think, by myself and...
The Souvenir Card Collectors Society also had a table at the show and Stephen Patrick did a talk on Saturday for the group on bank notes created...
