Subject: AD: Deelfontein, Watson, Dhajala, Auctions Highlights!

Hello Everyone,

I have added some new items to my store:

Chaves, Idutywa, Charlotte, Mount Vernon, Castalia, Tres Castillos, Santa
Apolonia, Coolac, Hamlet, Mount Joy, Ogallala, Bholgati, Orange River, Uwet,
Rush County, St. Lawrence, Hex River, Albion, Iredell, Indian Valley, Troup,
Forsyth, Fayetteville, Staunton, Honolulu, Bonita Springs, Crescent, Tilden,
Seymour, Deelfontein, Diep River, Social Circle, Calico Rock, Bristol,
Watson, Dhajala, Walker County, Frankfort, Akbarpur, Emery, and many others


These and about 300 others that I have yet to list were acquired from an
older collection. Some are straight museum trades and others are “older NEMS
specimens, which are no longer available. In fact, Russ Kempton will no
longer be cutting obscure irons and many of his specimens have reached the
end of cutting. When I say that most of the above and the others I have are
no longer available, that pretty much sums it up. Some of these will not be
replaceable.  Times are a changing for witnessed falls, Low Known Weight
Falls and Historical specimens. I and other have seen a 100 to a 1000
percent increase in $$$ of the rarer and more obscure material.   In
retrospect, some of the prices I am getting are all time record prices
 and
they are selling at these prices.  Anyway, most of these pieces have not
been available to the collector for a long time and with some specimens,
they have NEVER been available. Worth a look in any case. 


Here are some highlights for this weeks auctions:


If some of you remember, a few months ago a piece of Bonita Springs, Florida
