I glanced though the catalog after the auction ended (after, all I was semi-conscious in the hospital during the auction) and noticed some of the high speed 'Edgerton' photos. In case anyone picked one up, Harold Edgerton is one of the most famous and important photographers in 20th century history. He was an M.I.T. electical engineering professor who invented ultra high speed photography. You know, those iconic images of a bullet piercing a playing card, a hummingbird wings in mid flap-- those are Edgerton's photos. Many to most of his photos were shot in his M.I.T. lab. His photos are ranked as both advanced scientific experiments and collectible works of art, and original examples are rare on the market.
