Gar Travis, a 1978 graduate of Fork Union Military Academy and United
States Coast Guard Veteran served as a numismatic research consultant for
more than fifteen years in North Carolina following his enlistment.
He has dabbled in film photography and was an early experimentalist in
the field of digital numismatic photography. Moving to California in 2004
to assume a position with an internationally known numismatic auction
house as its chief cataloger, Gar brought with him a love of
photography and his cameras.
Wanting to show where he has been and what he has seen to his long time
friends in North Carolina and willing to share his visual captures with
the world, Gar offers this web site.
In addition to his many business
and hobby interests, Gar is the Chief of Photography of Powered Sport Flying magazine,
a contributing editor to
The NUMISMATIST
magazine, an Entertainment Photographer for
the Renaissance Pleasure Faire® of Southern California, Ship's Photographer for the
American Pride
and an Advisor to the Children's Maritime Foundation.
Gar is the author of the book; Cyprus Coins, which he also
photo-illustrated. The text was published in 2006 by the Cyprus Museum.
The book offers a numismatic chronology of Cyprus and features coins
housed in the museum.
