<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lettow, post: 910438, member: 6986&quot;]Since you apparently live in the Chicago area, the best piece of advice I could give you is to make your way to Milwaukee on the second Saturday of every month to the meetings of the Midwest Chapter of the International Bank Note Society.&nbsp; The meetings are held at the North Shore Library on Port Washington Road.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>There are usually 20-25 people at the meetings.&nbsp; There is a show and tell portion, an educational program and an auction.&nbsp; People also bring in notes to sell.&nbsp; This has been going on for 21 years now.&nbsp; Contact Andrew Keene for more information and a copy of the meeting notice.&nbsp; Here is his email address: <a href="mailto:Andrewkeene@me.com">Andrewkeene@me.com</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I have attached a copy of the June meeting notice for reference.</p><p><br /></p><p>While I can appreciate your enthusiasm, simply buying all you can without some focus may lead to disappointment.&nbsp; Find a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Paper Money at a library or bookstore and page through it.&nbsp; At this point, even an old edition will be helpful to give you an idea of what notes are out there, what areas you may be interested in, and the relative cost of the notes in these areas. </p><p><br /></p><p>Most of all -- Have fun![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
