Spring Issue Mailed

Spring 2008 Curry’s Chronicle Has Been Released!


The eleventh issue of the award-winning Curry’s Chronicle has been released and should be reaching Carson City Coin Collectors of America club members shortly. Thanks always to the members who volunteered to submit articles and letters to the editor. We appreciate members stepping forward and volunteering in that fashion. And as always, we ask our members to consider writing something for the next summer issue of the journal. You do not have to be a professional writer of any sorts to contribute. For more information regarding submissions and deadlines please refer to your new spring 2008 chronicle. If you require further assistance or want to pass an article idea by me, feel free to email me at mariesgate@sbcglobal.net or call me at (775) 322-4455 and I will be happy to assist you.

Typo Announcement and a Solution

There's one additional item that I would also like to address. When you receive the latest issue of Curry's Chronicle you'll notice two obvious TYPOs on the front cover and the title page. The printing company that produces our journal screwed up, and as a result, instead of it reading “Spring 2008” on the front cover and the title page, it reads “Winter 2008.” We were shocked by the mistake made by our printer. But they have apologized for their carelessness and in order to remedy the errors they have created replacement stickers that read “Spring 2008,” which you will place over the “Winter 2008” mistake on your journal.

These replacement stickers will be mailed along with important renewal information to each member within the next six weeks. So, don't flip out when you see the typos, and just hold tight and we'll get the correct information on your journal before summer arrives.

And, just as a reminder, the $20 annual membership dues entitles you to a year's subscription to Curry’s Chronicle. The schedule of release for these journals is as follows:

1. Spring issue mailed out the first of March
2. Summer issue mailed out the first of June
3. Fall issue mailed out the first of September
4. Winter issue mailed out the first of December

Hope everyone enjoys reading their spring journal. I expect to see some blogs written on this site sharing about what you've learned!

This upcomming "mistake" issue might just be valuable someday! One has only to think of special mint errors and their added value due to their errors. For you older club members (like me), harken back to the days when The Beatles released "Yesterday & Today". That album's first cover depicted the group draped with torn baby heads and raw meat. That strong cover was not well accepted so Capitol records put covers or stickers over some of those albums depicting a more sedate John, Paul, George & Ringo seated on steamer trunks. Those "covered" or "stickered" album covers now are very rare & valuable! Nice possibility, however, I'm sure it would be preferred that the printer did not make that mistake again.

Michael,
That is truly a "glass half full" take on the printing error on the spring issue of Curry's Chronicle. I like your attitude. We'll get the problem corrected and then make our printer swear an oath that he won't make the same mistake again.
I guess the most important thing is that none of the content inside the journal is affected by the printer's carelessness.
