    As most collecting starts, this one started by accident. I bought an old Civil War Medicine chest, and found a nice tin type tucked away where no one would have found it. I am focused on Civil War soldiers, outlaws, or just about anyone brandishing a weapon or looking dapper. So far so good.

      Nice photographs. I collect and deal in antique images-- take a look at my postings. I have a couple hundred posted on here.

      Similar to the stock market-- ups and downs. Right now is a good time to buy quality antique images-- most prices are at levels of the early 90s.

      I've got a bunch of photos if you're interested as I am only keeping the ambros, dauggers and tins. They mostly came in estate lots.
