The second issue, dated November 1961, was renamed The Numismatic Journal as [Lynn] Glaser took over the journal and withdrew from the Metropolitan Coin Company which had moved to New York City where it was operated by Paul Weinstein." Breen contributed articles on a 1795 dollar overstruck on a 1794 dollar, Massachusetts silver, and a new sub-variety of 1794 cent.

Erste deutsche Ausgabe. (Mit Namenverzeichnis; im Sachregister mit einigen Belegstellen zu 'androgyn'). - Gut erhaltenes Exemplar. - Gr.-8°. 568 S. Orig.-Leinen-Bd.

4to, original black cloth, jacket. xiv, 754 pages. Well-illustrated throughout. Fine. Possibly the greatest single attempt to discuss all U.S. coinage, including colonial and private coinages, in a single volume. Supplementary material includes a glossary, bibliography, metrological information, indices and a "How to Use This Book" section. While some have focused on the textís occasional errors and the volumeís production problems, it would be tough to name another reference work that includes so much solid information. While not the final word on any subject, it should certainly be referred to at the beginning of any numismatic project that falls within its scope.

[Most of title page information crossed out.] Photocopy [1966 or later] of over 200 pages of typewritten manuscript, the original of which was heavily annotated in ink. Near fine. An early working draft of the book that developed into Walter Breen's Encyclopedia of United States Half Cents: 17931857 (published 1983). This typescript is earlier than usually seen, and builds on the work as it existed in the late 1950s. Most pages include corrections, and many had been heavily annotated by Breen prior to photocopying. Most pages of fine quality; a few pages are overly light or dark. An interesting and important typescript showing Breen's composition process. The July 1966 date of the charming Preface (which shows Breen as his best) seems about right for the typewritten material that follows. Copies like this circulated for years as Breen unsuccessfully sought a publisher of the work.

Gustav Gerson Kahn (November 6, 1886 - October 8, 1941) was an American lyricist who contributed a number of songs to the Great American Songbook, including "Pretty Baby", "Ain't We Got Fun?", "Carolina in the Morning", "Toot, Toot, Tootsie (Goo' Bye!)", "My Buddy" "I'll See You in My Dreams", "It Had to Be You", "Yes Sir, That's My Baby", "Love Me or Leave Me", "Makin' Whoopee", "My Baby Just Cares for Me", "I'm Through with Love", "Dream a Little Dream of Me" and "You Stepped Out of a Dream". After graduating from high school, he launched one of the most successful and prolific careers from Tin Pan Alley. By 1933, Kahn had become a full-time motion picture songwriter, contributing to movies such as Flying Down to Rio, Thanks a Million, Kid Millions, A Day at the Races, Everybody Sing, One Night of Love, Three Smart Girls, Let's Sing Again, San Francisco, Naughty Marietta, and Ziegfeld Girl. He also collaborated with co-lyricist Ira Gershwin. He had a friendship with Walter Donaldson. Their first collaboration was the song My Buddy in 1922. They went on to compose over one hundred songs together. Walter Donaldson (February 15, 1893 - July 15, 1947) was an American prolific popular songwriter and publishing company founder, composing many hit songs of the 1910s to 1940s, that have become standards and form part of the Great American Songbook. He had his first professional songs published in 1915. In 1918, he had his first major hit with "The Daughter of Rosie O'Grady". During World War I, Donaldson entertained troops at Camp Upton, New York. His time there inspired him to write "How Ya Gonna Keep 'em Down on the Farm (After They've Seen Paree)?" After serving in the United States Army in World War I, Donaldson was hired as a songwriter by Irving Berlin Music Company. He stayed with Berlin until 1928, producing many hit songs, then in 1928 established his own publishing company. His company was legally known as "Donaldson, Douglas & Gumble, Inc", but all the publications had Walter Donaldson's name in large letters, and the legal name of the company in fine print. Donaldson frequently worked with lyricist Gus Kahn. Donaldson is primarily known as a composer, rather than as a lyricist, although he wrote words and music for dozens of songs. Among the big hits for which he wrote both words and music were "At Sundown" and "Little White Lies". In his prolific career, he published some 600 original songs. At the end of the 1920s, Donaldson moved to Hollywood, California, and worked composing and arranging music for motion pictures. His film credits include work on such pictures as Glorifying the American Girl, Suzy, The Great Ziegfeld, Panama Hattie, Follow the Boys and Nevada. May Singhi Breen (née May W. Singhi ; February 24, 1891, New York City - 19 December 1970, New York City) was an American composer, arranger, and ukulelist, who became known as "The Original Ukulele Lady." Her work in the music publishing business spanned several decades. Breen was the driving force in getting the ukulele accepted as a musical instrument by the American Federation of Musicians. In 2000, she became the first woman inducted into the Ukulele Hall of Fame. Breen is credited with convincing publishers to include ukulele chords on their sheet music. The Tin Pan Alley publishers hired her to arrange the chords and her name is on hundreds of examples of music from the 1920s on.[6] Her name appears as a music arranger on more pieces than any other individual. Her earliest known credit for a ukulele arrangement was in 1917 but her arrangements began to appear in large numbers in 1923. In 1923 Breen met Peter DeRose and together the two were the "Sweethearts of the Air", a radio show that ran for 16 years from 1923-1939, on NBC affiliate WJZ in New York where Breen played ukulele and DeRose accompanying her on the piano.
