Adam,
Thanks for the ID help. I wasn't sure if it was a "steal" or not. The description made it sound as if
it was a period photo of the original photo (due to a drastic shortage of copy machines back then)
and that the original was thought to not exist anymore. Which, in my head at least, would make this
the "new" original.
I'd been outpriced on about 5 other lots and really wanted this one, but couldn't stay up until the auction closed.
I was actually surprised that I'd won it — considering some of the huge prices that were out there for other items.
