Here are some pics from St. Louis.
The first is Notlogical meeting Eric P. Newman at the awards banquet. Notlogical won an award for an article on the Cheerios Sacagawea
Dollar. Way to go!
Next we have Notlogical and CoinHusker (Proud dad) with me at my table
This is a picture of Cape doing the Treasure Hunt. (Cape sounds like he's from Cape Cad or something.) He was sitting across from me, so I just snapped the picture to show the kids having fun.
Next is a show shot. Notice Cliff Mishler at the right. Please vote for him for ANA Gov.
Here is Coppercoins doing some work. (Thanks for the ride to the airport, Chuck)
And lastly here is poor Meriwether Lewis drowning by the Eads Bridge. The river was at flood stage and this was taken on Wednesday. By Saturday it was a foot higher. It was supposed to crest today.

I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
is that some beatnik growth on your chin?
cool pics.
We also went up in the Arch, what a blast and view! Sorry I kind of hijacked your thread but i just wanted to give a quick report of the show from my point of view.
I'm trying to think of what the equivalent would be in my life....whom could I meet in 1980?
Abe Kosoff. I saw him at my first ANA in 1976, but didn't have the guts to say "Hi".
<< <i>Abe Kosoff. >>
Good call. After I posted this, I decided that was the closest comparison I could come up with in that time frame.
Thing is, I never went to any big shows at that age. I would have been 14 to start 1980, and knowing what I know now, the chance to meet Abe Kosoff would have been fantastic -- about like my dad meeting B. Max Mehl, 25-30 years earlier, I suppose.
<< <i>I guess everyone knows who notlogical is but who is Eric Newman and was he honored to meet notlogical? >>
He's the guy on Mad Magazine. No, wait, that's Alfred E Neuman.
Eric P. Newman
And yes, I am sure he was honored to meet notlogical too.
Actually he was very impressed with Sam.
Eric said at the event that he considered himself a numismatic fossil!

Funny... I have an article Newman wrote in 1957 in my room for a research paper I've been writing.

<< <i>What a wonderful report & pictures. Congratulations, Samuel. I'll bet that Mr. Newman was thrilled to meet a YN with your enthusiasm and knowledge. >>
I agree. Heck, I'm happy to meet grown-ups with his enthusiasm and knowledge
If I remember correctly, a few years ago you wrote about the Wisconsin quarters, this year the Cheerios Sac., what is in the works for next year?
Congrats!

Thanks Rick for the fantastic pictures! It was really a fun weekend and one we will all remember for a long time. It makes the 17 hours total in the car (there and back) not seem so long after all.
We are really proud of our YN and truly appreciate all the support he receives from so many on these boards. Thanks to one and thanks to all!

Man you know it. That was gone. Dig it?
What a great experience. That picture is one that notlogical will cherish for many, many years to come.
