Default California Deaquisition?

Probably just a coincidence, but there have been a lot of early 20th century California team and individual photos like this one on Ebay lately:

These have included such notables as the L.A. Angels c.1906, individual photos of Pop Dillon and Hen Berry, etc., along with a number of semi-pro and town team pictures. A couple of the first ones from a month or so ago had something like "L.A. Athletic Foundation" and an address with zip code stamped on the back. I should have paid more attention to the name, but perhaps there has been a major deacquisition of a photo archive out there. And who is eBay seller WCM, or West Coast Memorabilia? I know they do a lot of photos, and they have the largest number of feedbacks (65,000) I've ever seen. Anybody know who they are?
