I hope this came in a large lot. I would hate to think that you actually paid money for it.

It wasn't just the 1860's. I posted this in another thread. And I found it in a kilo lot.

I am sometimes glad that the quality control was not that great back then. This makes it interesting for those of us who like collecting EFOs.
