DaveH Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Most likely thrown in the bin, because no one bought it Could depend upon how much he paid to buy it himself. If he was done and paid a lot for it he may just want to recoup his losses. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichardB Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Had me bewildered for nigh on three hours ... which is nice. (May be worth putting a copy of this thread in "Pubs" please.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardB Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 I have this cracked; I had it down as "Bushmakers", 31 Pond Hill, with no known keepers. However, I now have a couple of keepers - male - occupation Brushmakes, beerhouse & shopkeeper (1833, 1837 & 1849) - followed, presumably by his wife in 1852. Let's see what UKL makes of it.

Link to ebay item Not bad from a starting price of 99p!The jump from £18 odd to £53 looks like soneone was trying to knock out the other bidders but failed!

ukelele lady Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Any reason why we can't use the photo on here ? Well I wondered that. We've obviously all got a print now. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link .. ebay.co.uk With the attention football related items receive, and the fact that it is at £33 already it could just about do the £54+ But then again there are only a couple of hours left, so perhaps not. Be interesting to see what it does go for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see what it does go for. A mere £37.00 was the final amount, which is just about what the whole club is worth now . Picks up blue & white scarf and runs for the hills.

madannie77 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 How about £15.00 for a photograph of tramcar 189 http://cgi.ebay.co.u...=item4397ad9747 EDIT or £20.00 for tramcar 222 http://cgi.ebay.co.u...=item334f387ee1 I suppose the fact that these photos have been on offer on ebay for quite some time tells its own story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not as he is selling original photos, they are digital copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not as he is selling original photos, they are digital copies. Indeed, there are plenty at £2.00, which I still think is quite a large sum for prints. I tend to buy at rail events & bus rallies at much lower prices. And it is nice that some of the images on ebay aren't watermarked and are quite a nice size!
