What is NAMC

Post by diecastfan »

This might sound a daft question but can any of the forum members explain what NAMC stands for as I have read numerous posts reverting to the NAMC catalogue. :)

There are no silly questions on this Forum. We learn by asking questions to fill in the gaps in our knowledge, and it is unreasonable to expect someone who has just started to know as much as someone who has been collecting for over 50 years.

Welcome to the Forum,
The questions you are now asking are not silly as most of us have asked them at one time or another.
ask and you will be a little wiser.
have fun

I think I have asked this question before, but does one of our members know for how long the NAMC newsletter has been published?
My collection of the Newsletters starts at Volume I, No. 6 dated November 15, 1970 (so I'm obviously missing Volume 1, No. 1 - 5)
My last copy is Volume V, No. 3 which is dated July - August 1974 - but are there any further issues??
