Is there going to be a new version of the expanded "MegaRed" version of the Red Book? Just wondering if there's going to be a new version of it to go along with next months new Red Book.

Philately will get you nowhere....

    Did you mean MEGA?

    Nothing is as expensive as free money.

    I too hope there will be. Whitman skipped that version last year due to the corporate merger. I have each edition, as I love the expanded section in each edition.

    I called and asked that question last week. "Hopefully next year" is what I got. Given I've been hearing that about the Obsolete Paper Money encyclopedias since 2017, not holding my breath.

    Heard on a YouTube discussion by some Whitman folks that it is planned for Spring/Summer 2026, they have spent too much time and effort with the upgraded 2026 Red Book for April to be able to get it done sooner.

    Currently in the works, without (yet) an official release date: Mega Red 10th Edition and Obsolete Paper Money (New York). Jim Haxby is the editor of the Obsolete books going forward. These projects are a huge amount of work and so we are trying to pace ourselves while pushing. I believe we've already released more titles in the last 12 months than the previous 2-3 years. (prior to merging Whitman and CDN). Everyone on the team is really excited.
