Agreed. I think in some cases it wasn't immediately obvious that the listings were for more than 1 item. I just realized now (after the fact) that the Willard Brown listing was for 2 contracts and Leon Day was for 3. (I probably should have picked up on it when I bid on the Pedro Cepeda's, but somehow didn't.

I don't know if others may have similarly overlooked them.

David amazing Smoky Joe cabinet and glad you won it. I laugh now that I thought maybe my $2500 bid would win it. Do you remember what it went for in 2007?

I love that Smokey Joe! Sounds like we were all bidding on that one!!

Glad I gave up on that one though or I couldn't have afforded this guy!

Thrilled that you got that, David.

I was chasing the Temple Cup print for a while, but chickened out late. More stuff tomorrow.

Open the large image on your screen, hit the print screen key on your keyboard, then open up Paint, a graphics program, Word, something, and hit control v to paste the image.

Happy to help. I should have mentioned that the photo editing programs will also allow you to crop the screen shot down to just the relevant auction details or to only the photo (the more of your screen the image fills up when you "print screen" the better the image will be). You can crop in Word too by left clicking the image once, then right click, choose the crop icon, and drag the corners of the image to the size you want.

Also - great items! I am loving all of these Horner cabinets. I need to pick one of those up some day.

I definitely agree that the descriptions could have been better - you really had to dig to find out the particulars for each listing! The Willard Brown contracts were pretty neat in that one had his fingerprint too. The Ray Brown contract was quite rare - I'm surprised it didn't go for more since one went for $12,000+ at REA about 10 years ago.
