<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 1658380, member: 66&quot;]I would also recommend copies of the Dan Holmes I and Dan Holmes II catalogs.&nbsp; They are not expensive (Less than the books will cost) and you won&#039;t regret getting them.&nbsp; If you do regret it let me know, I don&#039;t mind having back up copies of good reference sale catalogs.&nbsp; I&#039;m on my second Robbie Brown sale catalog and my third copy of the Jack Robinson sale. Both by Superior Galleries.&nbsp; I already have two copies of all four Dan Holmes sales but I would not be adverse to having more back up copies.&nbsp; (It is that good, not ideal but GOOD.&nbsp; Ideal would be the Robbie Brown or Jack Robinson descriptions with the Dan Holmes pictures.&nbsp; The RSB and JR sales pictured every variety and gave the diagnostics for each one.&nbsp; They also listed what other varieties that did could be found on and in what sequence.&nbsp; But the pictures while being good for their day were actual size and and could not be enlarged.&nbsp; Fine grain half-tones.&nbsp; What can you say, we are talking mid 80&#039;s.&nbsp; The Dan Holmes pictures are enlarged, high quality and in color.)</p><p><br /></p><p>p91, you should have a PM from me telling you where you might be able to pick up the catalogs.&nbsp; He has a copy of the Jack Robinson catalog too.&nbsp; They are a lot cheaper now.&nbsp; He has it estimated at $8, I used to buy them for $35.</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh and if you like the large cents and half cents I DO recommend that EAC membership.&nbsp; The quarterly publication is excellent, and every two years (so far) the club provides each member with a free DVD of the complete set of back copies of Penny-Wise, the club journal.&nbsp; PDF format, searchable, over 13,000 pages of information on half cents, large cents, colonials, and the occasional Conder token, hard times tokens, or Civil War token.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
