Whitman Publishing is looking for sharp, high-resolution photographs of Roosevelt dimes, 1946 to date, including die varieties, to illustrate the fourth edition of MEGA RED (the Deluxe Edition ofthe Guide Book of United States Coins). Hobbyists who share their photographs will be credited in the book's acknowledgments.

Billed as the "biggest, most useful Red Book ever," MEGA RED measures 7 x 10 inches and has 1,504 pages. Each year's new MEGA RED features an in-depth focus on one or more coin series.

The fourth edition of MEGA RED will debut in March 2018. It will cover all series of United States dimes, starting with the famous disme of 1792. Q. David Bowers will share his research on DrapedBust, Capped Bust, Liberty Seated, Barber, Mercury, and Roosevelt dimes.

"We're seeking nicely matched sets of Roosevelt dimes, including silver and copper-nickel coins, in Mint State as well as Proofs, plus the major die varieties," said Whitman publisher DennisTucker. "In addition, we welcome photographs of dime-related ephemera from any era. This might include savings-bank folders, Christmas cards with openings for dimes, dime-shaped bottles, and othercollectibles."

Image files should be at least 300 dpi at two times actual size. "Scans and cell-phone photographs generally are not acceptable for this kind of cataloging," Tucker said. "Ideally we'd like to seecollectors' best professional-level photography."

Hobbyists with images to share should contact Dennis Tucker at dennis.tucker@whitman.com by October 27, 2017.
