NEWSLETTER REVIEW
Ken & Eleanor Smith and Steve Alpert had another very
interesting issue (November-December 1980) of "The
Jackpot." It was amply pointed out that the annual dues of
$5.00 should have been remitted by January 5. They will,
of course, accept late dues, but will not be able to
guarantee delivery of the January-February 1981 issue.
This issue was very informative giving the reader an
itinerary that will be followed in the six issues. They give a
list of tokens for which to look. It's absolutely amazing to
an amateur to find that there have been so many different
tokens manufactured.
Ken Smith, a native of Minneapolis, Minnesota will be
doing a series of articles relating the discoveries of
