Not exactly an opulent production, but the collection is very important, well catalogued and well illustrated. The two Greenland Dollars on the cover should give you some indication that the catalog is worth a look.
Unsurprisingly, very scarce. (I could almost hear Paul saying "Do you know how much it costs to print these things?" as I typed that. Sorry, Paul, didn't really mean that! OK, maybe I did.)

I have nothing from Bosco in my library. I have been asking him when he's going to hold a certain medal sale that he has been threatening to do for years, but he keeps putting it off. I told his wife that she will need to hold it after he's gone since he will never do it.
I know he handled a lot of Bolivian years ago.
Darn, I missed this one! Probably the best single sale of chopmarked coins ever put on, including an extremely rare MS example of the 1878-CC Trade Dollar (the Willem coin), a very nice and rare 1859-S Seated Dollar, and many choice world rarities; his provenance is one of the best in the hobby. Been looking for an original copy of this catalog, hope another one turns up!
