What about the revised Hibler-Kappen? Hasn't that been in
production for
like ten years now?

IIRC, that book was issued back before zip codes. Is either Hibler
or
Kappen still around to do the job?

Has the wait for the "Cherrypicker's vol2" been so long the joke is a
given or Is the fact that I ordered it it a joke in itself? Does anyone
have any word from Stanton etc? The numismatic need for the volume is
real. Ahh I get it; they were waiting to include the Wisconsin leaf
variety.

Who is supposed to be working on it? Both Harold Hibler and
Charlie Kappen have passed away, and neither was planning on
issuing a new edition anyway ...

Obviously, it would not be written by either Hibler or Kappen.

As I understand it, the So-Called Dollar Collectors Club of Carmichael,
California is currently working on a new revision -- basically, taking
H-K's work as source and updating it with current pricing and new
issues, and whatever new information they've uncovered in the 40+ years
since H-K was published.

Amazon is listing both the "Type Set" and the "Five Cent Piece" red
books. Anyone know when these will really be published?

I spoke to my wholesaler last thursday and he had heard of no street date
whatsoever for either one.

Just called him. He says "they're supposed to be out real soon but he
hasn't seen any."

Cool. I preordered both from amazon. Whenever they're published, they'll
eventually wend their way to my doorstep.
