Exactly Ben. I know where some of the Hedetke [sic] tractors are now, but what about all of the engines in the photos? Are they in private hands, what about the engines that appear to be in a bone yard? The neat thing is the photos appear to be all identified.

Ben: That was my thought precisely! I have seen similar photos on ebay before. They were identical in that they were the same era, and very similar hand written notes on the back. Some of those photos were indicated as being some of Harold Ottoway's collection in Kansas. Perhaps they were taken by the same hands.

Seems there was no interest @ 199.00. There are definetly some wonderfull photos there. New listing # is 110439619272.

Some of the images displayed do appear to be taken at Steam Engine Joe's.

These sold as well for the opening bid of 169.99, but given the number of images that is slightly more than $2.00 a pic. I wonder if we will see them in a new edition of coffee table book??
