I was the winner of the lot of 19th century newspapers and I think that I got a great price (with shipping it will work out to about 10 per paper).

I agree that the pictures may have been a major problem here. For example there was a lot which was a 1869 report on Central Park. The lots hook was that it contained an tipped in photo of the ballfield with children playing baseball- but they never showed this photo. I was bidding on the lot but dropped out early becuase it was to much of a gamble as to what this photo looked like

I would note that all of this stuff was listed on ebay as a live auction so anyone loooking for this type of material would have been able to find it

Finally, Max would you let me win one sometime- between here, ebay and leland's I think I may have beat you one out if ten plus times- may be we could both save some money if we talked before bidding.
