Long John Latham's Treasure World

Welcome to my selection of Long John Latham's Treasure World magazine. Treasure World was published in the mid 60s through the mid 70s by John H Latham as a bi-monthly companion publication to the magazine True Treasure. It features articles on a wide range of treasure topics from caches to buried and sunken treasure. I have made special mention of those issues that feature articles on sunken treasure and shipwrecks. I hope that you find what you are looking for. If not, please do not hesitate to send me your want list.
