I have to say a shout out to Fraz for creating this thread and for coordinating this event.
When I opened the folder today and saw all the members who signed it I instantly felt a connection with all of you knowing that every one of you has held the book and placed their Lincoln's in the folder.
Can't wait to sign it and then send it off to the next member.😎
Quick update. I haven't had any time to to add Lincoln's to the folder over the last few days but I promise I will do so this week. Also, the day trip will happen this week so check back for some incredible pics I have planned to take!😎

Thank you for your patience! I took the folder on a road trip today. Stopped by here on my way to Camden Yards to watch the Baltimore Orioles practice today:
That is great @WQuarterFreddie A perfect place for the album to visit. If the team decides to do the next Lincoln album in the series I will do a better job with photos around the area.

This is not mine, I trust that clever people will do better than I. No one needs my permission.
The only thing that concerns me is that the dude who has James’s address will send it to his grandson, at my expense, when we’re ready. (He posted in James’s thread.)
Anything that happens to the folder in the present will be ten times weirder in the future. @Tibor —Volume two is your baby, with all my support, you suggested it to me first. This is a prototype.
As the the Book 1 is being completed, Fraz has past the torch to me
for Book 2. These are big shoes to fill, so I will copy cat his actions
since the Book 1 is going so well. I will of course appreciate any
guidance. Book 2 should be an easy fill. Maybe we could start signing
up for, Book 2. Since there are no real stoppers except maybe 1955-S,
we might limit our selves to 6 or 7 coins. Let me know what you think
and any suggestions.
Count me in for book 2 and my only suggestion would be each participating member take at least 1 photo of the book on the road in their area just like @WQuarterFreddie did if they are able to do so
Let's go ahead and finish out folder #1 before we have
much more discussion on #2, #3 and #4.
That was my thought earlier. How about starting another half-way through? Slow down so that anyone who wants can wait for an upcoming occasion to be creative; not treat it like a hot potato—increase the hands-on opportunities. As long as we’re willing to shell out the postage it’s okay. You don’t want to burn folks out, though.
I’m going to DC next week. I could christen number two at the mint and send it to Tibor to do with whenever, if I had one. I cannot get one delivered before I leave.
I suggest we start folder 2 after folder one is complete. Why add to the confusion?
We have a great group effort going and there is no deadline so why rush it? Let's take the opportunity to enjoy each folder before filling the next. Just my thoughts.....🤔
Comments
Per your request! Just received today and these are the pics:

Let me know. 😎
Please do. Thank you sir.
Thank you WQF
My pleasure!😎

Looked through the folder last night and found these mistakes:
Yes @WQuarterFreddie those are ones I had mentioned should be replaced if this album is indeed donated to the family of @Jzyskowski1

Any hints as to where you are going?
Some where near the Mason Dixon Line😉

Awesome photos. Did anyone question what you were doing?
Nope! I move quickly and deliberately.🤣😂
Nicely played!

Thank you sir! I had a blast!🤣😂
I thought so too. Thank you!😎
I would also do the same
Pics from my visit to Camden Yards today!😎🥇⚾️🥳🥳🥳
Count me in on any future "Folder" filling. I won't be
giving up my 1933 Double Eagle. There are limits!!
If I read correctly all of the participants are East of the
Mississippi river.
Upon reading the list, Jzyskowski - lived in Colorado. All others so far are East of Mississippi River 😉
Ok. I added my coins, put the 2019-W back in the 1909-S VDB slot and took out the incorrect coins I posted earlier.
Whomever is next please PM me your address so I can ship it out today.😎
Edit: Sorry. I just read that @ChrisH821 is next up. Chris shipping out to you today!
Pics of the folder and the coins I added today:
@Fraz Folder shipped to Chris. I sent him tracking number.
Thanks again for allowing me to participate in this event.😎
No, thanks for making it more fun. Volume 2 will be interesting.
We’re getting low on willing folk. C’mon guys, your shot at immortality. Leave your impression somewhere other than your grave.
I’ll sign next for now.

Looks like you may have forgotten myself and @seanq have also volunteered. We should be right after @jesbroken
@WQuarterFreddie sure did a great job with the photos!

On Oct 4th I volunteered to keep helping with this folder or any future projects. I hope you'll still consider me.
Already contributed but send it back around. I'll get my small wheat hoard out and " fill some holes.

@Tibor Book 2 sounds like fun. I have plenty to pick from that were found roll searching 50+ years ago. Count me in. A limit makes sense.

Our first two participants. If I'm not mistaken there is a Book 3 as well.

Yes, I believe there is. Feel free to put me near the end of the list since I was one of the first to receive Book 1. Doesn't matter though.

Tibor put me on the list Tom147. I just ordered album # 3 on eBay. Think we should wait to start it ? Or start at the same time ?
Actually a 4th. 3rd just covers 1975 to 2013
Put me in early.
If I may, I'd like to claim the 55 S spot. I have a PCGS ms64 red to crack out.
Participants for the 2nd folder.
