<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2494421, member: 19463"]I'm also happy to see this start. I have never seen any of these issues having dropped out before 2004. I lived for the arrival of the Celator when it first began in newspaper format but as much was for the ads as the articles. Before the Internet, those offers of price lists were golden. I wonder how many of those dealers are still in business. I saw some. If anyone reads this, would it be possible to have a list of highlights of each issue on the menu page. As it is, you have to enlarge the cover to see what was advertised as in that issue. Of course an overall index would be great, too. Some of us will be embarrassed if you read what we wrote back then. Thanks to vCoins for the resource.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now a suggestion for CT ancients fans. As you find articles you found valuable advertise them here on CT. Don't just say there is an article of something but review it telling us whether you got something out of it or if it was just so dated as to be worthless. Speaking of worthless:</p><p><a href="http://wgs.website/celator/SmithArticle%28Apr1994%29.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://wgs.website/celator/SmithArticle%28Apr1994%29.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://wgs.website/celator/SmithArticle(Apr1994).pdf</a></p><p>One of the articles I had published in 1994 was on how to convert photos into line drawings which could be used for such things a illustrating letterheads and business cards. I hope no one used it to design a tattoo of a coin but you never know. Considering what has happened to digital imagery in the Celator's 25 years it is pretty funny now. Remember in those days only Big Dogs had a computer with a hard drive and many of us felt lucky to have two floppies.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
