Nearly Complete NASCA Sales
NASCA / NASCA-Karp / NASCA-Smythe. AUCTION CATALOGUES. Rockville Centre, etc., 1976–1990. Eighty-five catalogues. Sales include Gengerke numbers 1–86 (includes Gengerke 57A and 57B as well as 60A and 60B) except for Sales 66 and 69, plus Sale 89 (the transition between NASCA and Smythe becomes confusing at this point, with Sale 87–88 being under the sole name of Smythe but Sale 89 under the NASCA banner). At least 25 with prices realized lists; a few with separate photo supplements, as issued. All 4to, original printed card covers. Generally fine. A nearly complete set of these notable sales. The NASCA sales feature the work of a number of prominent numismatists, most notably Douglas Ball, Herbert Melnick, Carl Carlson, John Munson, Martin Gengerke, C. Douglas Smith, and others. The first 53 sales were issued under the NASCA banner. Sale 54–56 were published as NASCA-Karp Auctions, while beginning with Sale 57 NASCA was listed as a Division of R.M. Smythe & Co. Important auctions included the Wayte Raymond collection, sold in a series of four sales. Continued under Smythe.
