King Farouk Collects World-Renowned Razor Blade Covers
Boyle notes King Farouk of Egypt as a serious collector with vast coin and stamp holdings and dislikes public display. Hans Schulman, an expert, calls Farouk a shrewd hobbyist who roams late at night over coins and stamps. Farouk also gathers arms books and American coin blocks, with a rare 1922 $5 gold piece once selling for $14,500. In court, W. Andre Wolfe was fined $28 total for driving without a license after a March 6 incident on the Yellow Springs Mountain road.
