I saved these images from the auction. Of interest is the factory picture which is different than others than i have seen. They usually have either more or fewer buildings. It may be useful as a good reference point for undated brochures and such.
Fair enough, Im just trying to be curtious to the new owner.
However I would argue that publishing an entire catalogue does devalue it because the information in the catalogue has value. I cant say I would be super inclined to pay a lot of money for a 1918 catalogue because I value the information more than the item itself.
But sometimes publiishing certain pages can help advance everyone's knowledge which can have great value in the non-monetary sense
If the purchaser of this catalogue prefer these images not be public, message me and I will delete them.
those pages/images were put online by the auction house, so it's now public domain. Even if you delete them, they will forerver be online
one thing I still don't understand or get is why those catalogues from the auction were never shared by the original owner with the CCM community ?!?!
why would the owner choose to keep those private? was the owner scared of copies?
originals are worth the $, copie are worth $0.05 a page
i understand that it's a pain in the a** to put pictures up or scan on this site (I can't do it) but some people can easily add them
