Did I say "buyer"? I meant seller. :o
Darryl, this is another favorite of mine -- the design and engraving is impeccable. Many of the union cards are brilliant, since the plate...
Success! The buyer took down the auction early and cancelled all bids. No response to my message, but obviously it made a difference, especially...
I just read through icandiggit's earlier thread. There are some differences with this eBay item -- first, it was posted on eBay.au (Australia),...
I'm going to loop in my thread here, which appears to be a continuation of this saga......
Thanks for the good info, guys. This is not one that I've bid on. Another example of "if it looks too good to be true, it probably is." Does...
I'm with you, Darryl. These are some nice vignettes.
Note: This is for a CD version of the catalog, with four disks *not* the printed volumes. It contains exactly the same info, however.
No doubt some bidders on this will hate me for drawing attention to it, but I've never seen an error like this before:...
Bob, you reminded me that there was another Santa vignette I posted earlier on the Souvenir Card thread --...
Thanks so much for posting this - very well researched and informative! I got curious and did a little Googling. Here's an image of that spurious...

Rickie's taxpaid tobacco stamp arrived today and to fulfill the promise, here is a scan. This is a prized addition to my collection, not one I...
Just came across this photo from an 1892 issue of Mekeel's Weekly Stamp News. It shows Hiram Edmund Deats posing with I.A. Mekeel (son of the...
I found this one just a couple months ago. Not in great shape, but the first one I've found with four 0s.
Nice link -- I like the photo of the actual B&O coaches. Would love to ride in one, but I'm not sure they'd make a very comfortable journey.
Here are a few more images of interest. These are not part of my collection, just photos I archived when I came across them. Wish they were higher...
I found a couple on my notes that I thought I'd share. These are both small vignettes engraved in the 1830s, hence the very early locomotives....
Wow, Rick -- I am just floored by your kind words. And very gratified that there are other collectors with as much appreciation for this material...
