Hi John, No, the NKKK Newsletter is long gone. I "published" it for a year in 1985-86, mostly because almost no one was collecting Japanese awards or knew much about them. It was more or less monthly and contained eight pages of info each time. It was nothing fancy, but did contain some useful bits of info like the names of awards in kanji, romanized, and in English to help folks figure out if they had mis-matched cases (I saw 2 on ebay this morning!), a few pre-1940 articles/ book excerpts mentioning the awards, a nengo chart, etc. Basically the stuff that Peterson didn't cover. I did this while I was in grad school, but as time became tighter I handed it off to my friend Louis Demers who kept it going for a bit longer. I gave a set to the OMSA library, but it never seems to have made it into their collection somehow. One interesting thing, though, is that we kept a running record of the prices various awards were gettting off of dealers lists and auctions. Looking at it today I think I can safely say that the prices haven't changed all that much!
