Standard Catalog of World Paper Money future

I was talking to some friends and they are sure the Pick Paper
Money Catalog will be discontinued.

I read about improving it and also discussed about getting a catalog
on the web, but anyone knows something about their market share
and if they are financially interested in this publication.

Regards to all collector friends,

As far as I know there is not any other catalog like it. Maybe they
are not selling
enough of them anymore to make it worthwhile to continue it.


If most people are using it as a pricing reference I would suspect that
Ebay
has taken its toll on the importance of the catalog for many people.

It won't be discontinued. Ebay is likely to have contributed to an
increase in sales of the catalogue with new collectors wanting some
sort of price guide to base their buying decisions on. However it is
likely that in the future online subscriber catalogues will become more
popular.

Most numismatic dealers update their catalogue with every update and
most serious collectors are the same. Also advertising revenue makes it
a viable publication.

Regis,

I just got off the phone with George S. Cuhaj, editor of the catalog for KP
Books. He says there's no truth to this rumor and that they will continue to
publish the catalog as long as it's profitable, which he claims it is.

While he refused to divulge sales figures for obvious reasons, he did reveal
that they have already ordered a second print run of the latest catalog.

If you're interested in ordering a copy of the 12th edition, George says
Amazon still has copies in stock:
