<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 5235569, member: 19463&quot;]Your mistake was not so much bidding too low as bidding too late.&nbsp; The Pozzi sale only realized 33 francs for lot 1577.&nbsp;&nbsp; My Pozzi catalog is the 1966 reprint which reproduced the prices in the back.&nbsp; That was some collection!&nbsp; Does a return of $2750 on an investment of 33 francs one hundred years before seem like a good deal?&nbsp; Someone here can do the math.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>My Pozzi has the bookplate of Dabney Shelton Mabry.&nbsp; It attracted my attention by the inscription &quot;Reading Rots the Mind&quot;.&nbsp; Does anyone know him?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
