Giving Away Old Copies of 'The Numismatist'

We have LOTS of old issues of The Numismatist from the 1940s thru 1960s. If anyone would be interested in a copy from their birth month and year, let me know and if we have it we'll send it to you. They're taking up way too much space in our already cluttered office here, and it might be cool to own a copy from your birthdate. We opened up one randomly the other day and it happened to be the issue announcing Pittman's acceptance as a Life Member to the ANA! Please send your request via PM only, and no dealers please (at least until all the collectors requests have been filled).

I don't believe we have any issues more current than the 60's....however, once we've accomodated all of the birthday requests, if there's a particular year(s) you might like an issue from during the decades we have available, I'd be happy to send it to you. For example, I admittedly swiped the June 1944 issue the other week for myself. Sort of a neat piece of memorabilia from the WWII era (D-Day, and all that).

Interestingly, the ANA convention featured in the October 1948 Numismatist shows Walton and Pittman together. Who knows, perhaps the photographer snapped his candid shot as Pittman was being slipped the genuine 1913 Liberty nickel from Walton? In the picture they are shoulder to shoulder but the hands are cropped out of sight!
A further thought - can you imagine Pittman not trying to acquire the coin form Walton given the other coins Pittman collected?

Thanks again NEN!

If you have a request, by all means let me know. The birthday requests had dried up the other week and so I've been sending issues out to anyone who cares to take a gander at some old numismatic literature. It didn't dawn on me that this thread would make it back to the front page, so I apologize to the folks who are just now making birthday requests and are not getting them filled. Keep 'em coming (via PM), and I'll certainly accomodate if I can. Second (or third) choices would be appreciated, in case I don't have the issue you want.
Regards,
Chris
