<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kaparthy, post: 30137, member: 57463&quot;]There is a Banknote Forum on <a href="http://www.coinpeople.com" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinpeople.com" rel="nofollow">www.coinpeople.com</a>, a board that operates much like this one.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am not an active collector of much -- I just write -- but I do maintain several collections of paper money by themes.&nbsp; These are typically inexpensive.&nbsp; They are stored with non-numismatic items in the same theme.&nbsp; For instance the Aviation notes are in a folder on a shelf with my aviation books, charts, etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aviation (includes Space)</p><p>Writing (Authors, Poets, Printing Presses, etc.)</p><p>Scientists</p><p>Musical instruments</p><p>Private Issues (Community Currency; Mines; &quot;scrip&quot;)</p><p>Stocks &amp; Bonds</p><p>Checks (Drafts)</p><p><br /></p><p>At the ANA convention in Pittsburgh, I bought a copy of Eric Newman&#039;s <i>Early Paper Money of America</i>.&nbsp; If you are interested in U.S. Colonial and Early Federal history, this book provides a lot of documentation.&nbsp; (Some people collect colonial paper by Signers of the Declaration of Independence, for instance.)&nbsp; I also have three of the Krause Catalogs of Banknotes (not the &quot;Specialized Issues&quot;) and the basic Friedberg for U.S. paper money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
