I'm glad you got it too, Ian! That was a great collection.

Adam, I'm reasonably certain that Ernest and William Born were brothers. The collection was consigned to LOTG from Ernest's daughter, who inherited the collection of about 1,000 cards, mostly from the tobacco era. Until you got it, the card had, as far as anyone knows, never been outside the family.

I've been fortunate enough to handle three original owner collections in the past year with LOTG, and each one has been an absolutely fantastic, fascinating experience.
