A number of years ago one of our members posted 3-4 N167's for his dad, Dr.James Lowe. They were listed on ebay as regular auction sales. It was quite a night when they ended and I was fortunate to walk away with the Ewing in the bunch, which another member later bought from me from our BST in the first ever Live Auction on the BST....and probably the most expensive sale on there too (50k+). Those were the days.

No doubt the Trucker Boy find was my best ebay score but this ambrotype from last year was pretty good too. And a dealer wanted it way more than I did, and bought it, but it's a great photo wherever it resides. And a type not likely to be seen again for a while (I had no idea how rare they were when I got it.)
