"Stanton is co-author with Bill Fivaz of The Cherrypickers' Guide to Rare Die Varieties. (here comes the funny part) :

Volume 2 of the fourth edition is to be published soon..."

Either Stanton is dead (I wouldn't know) or I'm a bit slow on the draw. I don't get it.

Will it ever be released ?

Any one who preordered and payed for the book years ago should get the irony.

The line from Stanton/Fivaz is that the book will be published any day now.... BUT they have been saying the same thing for years!

I emailed J.T. Stanton back in November and he said things got delayed due to some serious health problems he had. He didn't elaborate, but said it would keep him from coming to the Baltimore coin show because he had to be close to home for at least 6 months.

Until someone else writes a new book as good as Cherrypickers, we'll just have to wait until it's done and hope J.T.'s health improves.

Future additions may need an additional author to keep it going? It has been a really long time in the works.
