Pete, I don't think there are any sleepers in that collection...

I don't know who the "winner" really is is, but the winner's ebay handle has been bidding only since August on Luger items... I just checked his history and back in August he paid $214 and change for a copy of Harry Jones "Luger Variations" that wasn't in very good condition... especially since the covers had separated from the pages... a book that usually sells for about $30.00

I suspect he is a newbie with a new found interest in Lugers that doesn't know the real value of what he is bidding on... a Freshman at Luger University I would imagine...

I also know that Robert Marvin's widow has been slowly selling the books her husband authored on ebay over the last couple of years... I guess she finally decided to get rid of the whole lot of them and any other Luger related materials...This collection was sold by a third party...
