MYSTERIES OF TAHOE

When I was in Kirkwood, California on the 6th & 7th my LOST TREASURE USA booth was next to the LOST TREASURE MAGAZINE booth manned by ANTHONY M. BELLI, writer & Field Editor.  Anthony has produced his first book and has put it on CD:  MYSTERIES OF TAHOE--Legends of Buried & Sunken Treasure, Lost Mines & Ghost Towns.  Normally this book/CD retails for $20.00, but Anthony had a "Show Special" of only $10.00---so I bought ten of them !  If YOU would like to get one of these CDs---just email me at:  FRMPINK@AOL.COM to make arrangements to send me $10.00---for YOUR CD !  Very entertaining & informative !

 

LOST TREASURES OF CALIFORNIA & NEVADA

For about 35 years I have been collecting "treasure" leads, magazines, books and stories on ALL 50 states.  I have "Finally!" starting to put this info on CDs !  Eventually I plan to have ALL 50 states on 25 CDs ( 2 states per CD )---it will be quite a collection !!  On August 4th I completed my FIRST CD---CALIFORNIA & NEVADA.

 

Over 400 pages of treasure leads for these 2 states !  You will be amazed at all of the treasure leads included.  Information from many famous treasure hunters is included.  Don't miss out on this first CD !  Retails at $40.00, but readers of MY newsletter pay ONLY $20.00 !  Buyers of this CD will be sent ADVANCE NOTICE as future CDs are finished.  Collect the FULL set !

 

I prefer PAY PAL ( send $20.00 to LostTreasureUSA1@AOL.COM ) but money orders & checks may be sent to:

 

FLOYD MANN

3751 Market

West Valley City, UT  84119

 

I'll pay the postage !

 

BONUS !!!   All orders received by September 1st will receive a SECOND ( different ! ) "Surprise" CD  ( value of $40.00 ! ) !!

 

RESEARCH FILES CD

From the files & website of LOST TREASURE USA.  This is another CD I just completed !  Retails at $40.00---but YOU can get it for only $20.00 !

 

In treasure hunting it is common knowledge that RESEARCH is usually about 95% of the work involved in being successful.  In this CD I have listed about 19,000 magazine article titles that appeared in over 20 different treasure-type magazines from 1960 to 1995.  If I printed this CD---it would be about 400 pages !

 

The CD lists treasures from all 50 states & a lot of foreign countries.  To locate articles that might tell you about a treasure story you are researching, simply scroll down to the state you are interested in and then continue scrolling through the list of articles that have appeared in print about that state.  Each state has the articles categorized by type of treasure:  caches,lost mines, etc.

 

After you have located articles of interest you can contact me to order re-prints of the articles for ONLY $2.00 each !  I have about 95% of the 19,000 articles listed on this CD.  This RESEARCH FILES CD is a great research tool for the serious treasure hunter.  Just reading the CD is great entertainment !!

 

Order this CD by September 1st and here is what I will do:  BONUS !!   Choose any 10 articles from the CD that you would like reprints of, send me the list---and I'll send you those 10 articles !  FREE !!  A $20.00 value !!

 

BONUS #2---If you order BOTH CDs:  RESEARCH FILES and LOST TREASURES OF CALIFORNIA & NEVADA---you get a $5.00 discount !!  ---BOTH CDs, the 10 article re-prints, & "surprise" CD ---ALL for only $35.00 !!

 

PAYPAL:  LostTreasureUSA1@AOL.COM

 

CONTEST !!

For each newsletter I usually get 3 or 4 contributors of article links---usually the same people---from the hundreds that read my newsletter.  I would like to see MORE people send me a link or two every 2 weeks----SO:   I'll "try" a CONTEST to see if there is ANY interest---OK ??

 

By September 1st---for every website link ( or story ) that you send me I will enter your name one time in a drawing.  Send me 5 links---your name is entered 5 times.  Send me 10 links---you get 10 entries !!  Send links to:  FRMPINK@AOL.COM ---by August 27th !

 

I will have 20 prizes:  3 of Belli's CDs, a one-year subscription to LOST TREASURE MAGAZINE, 6-- 2-year subscriptions to THIS newsletter, 5 of the RESEARCH CDs, and 5 of the California/Nevada CDs.

 

Winners will be announced in the September 1st Newsletter & prizes sent on August 28th.

 

CONCLUSION

This concludes my 60th issue !  Most newsletters & magazines ( once a month ) take 5 years to produce 60 issues----I took 2 & a half years !!  Send in those links & WIN those Prizes !!

 

DEDICATION

To TARA---my Wonderful wife !
