I always enjoy these David. It's hard to imagine these sold prices (42 T201s sold for $6.60) (138 T205s sold for $13.80).

I think Lionel Carter might have been a little hard on the "long time dealer" who offered Mrs. Lacey $150 for the whole collection. After four months work, Lionel Carter realized $292.39 which I do not think included his postage costs. And Mrs. Lacy is still stuck with the guides, data books, magazines, and newspapers which she appears to have donated.

Even today I find it interesting that I can simply send my wantlist to a dealer and the dealer does all the work searching and pulling just the right numbers for me. All his/her labor is done for free?
