<p>World War II Military Currency is an unusual book. It is far more than a numismatic catalog simply listing and pricing paper money. It is a detailed study of paper money and history during an extraordinary period of world history. One cannot help but absorb a tremendous amount of history from the background material presented. the extent of coverage is matched by few, if any, paper money catalogs in print.</p>

Schwan, Fred

Readers will find illustrations of heretofore unknown national bank circulating notes and literally hundreds of other new pieces.  Turning every page of this new book brings a pleasant surprise; one cannot help but be thrilled by the illustrations throughout.  The preliminary sketches of notes which were issued allow the reader to see the artistry and craftsmanship involved in paper money production.  Looking at the incomplete and even complete but unissued designs, one can imagine the disappointment which must have been felt by the artist when his creation was rejected.  Now these great pieces can be appreciated for what they are-part of the national heritage.  The book includes many other features of interest to novice or at banks to collectors and students.  The introductory material places the issues in perspective with the Time &Technology.  Though all of the pieces described are rare and many exists only in institutions, others have been traded in the numismatic marketplace; Hessler has searched sales records indicating the prices at which the various pieces have sold.  This volume is the most complete single volume reference on the paper money of the United States.  It is far more than a priced catalog though it fulfills this function completely.  It also outlines the development of the various paper money issues from colonial times through the present.  More than 700 illustrations bring life to the more than 1800 listings.  Helpful information is also included concerning the production of paper money and assembling a paper money collection.  Since the first edition in 1974 this book has become recognized as one of the best paper money references.  It has been praised by collectors and non collectors alike.  All in all it is the perfect book for serious collectors and casual readers.
