Very cool pickup. I think you got a great deal on it.
They were found about eight or nine years ago along with some partial E93 blank back sheets. I believe it was one E93 set in two sheets, one in three, and another partial. The other part of the partial was cut up into what are now E93 blank backs - often advertised as proofs. If I remember right, they were all found in an envelope of somebody whose relative worked for the lithographer back in the day. Peter Calderon or Doug Allen might be able to give clearer details, but that is my recollection. It was originally auctioned by Mastro Auctions at the time.

P.S. Here is how my E93 sheets from the same find are displayed.
