Let's broaden this up a bit.... anyone own any Pittman coins? Have any memories of Pittman, his collection, the sales, or anything related?
*crickets* Haha, I know this is an obscure request.
I'm looking for a bit of information on a lot (or lots?) in the Pittman Sale. This was a bit before I really got into collecting, but my...
I'll be honest, Pen, that second set of photos is far more convincing. I'd have to see it in hand to be sure, of course, but if it reflects like...
This brings my set to 49% complete. It is impossible to get 100%, as some series are unknown in PL... but I hope to get as close as I can. Yeah,...
