Duke; I think the "gap" could be significantly closed if more individual club members involved themselves in reporting new issues from their geographical area.

Why can't some of the new issues "dealers" who make a couple of bucks from their retail sales to collectors, prepare such quarterly reports to be submitted to Editor Kregg Herz for each issue? I've been doing that with Atlantic City new issues for several years now. Why can't one of the Colorado dealers... or one of the Las Vegas dealers, or one of the California dealers or Riverboat dealers do the same? It's called "giving back to the hobby".
Just a suggestion.

Janice O'Neal did a remarkable job in the past ... with no compensation.... but then she's a remarkable lady. We need only a few people to do offer to do just a little bit each. Participation by others; that's what is important. Don't look for "Joe" or "Mary" to do it all (for all of us) on our behalf.
