Dear Fellow Researchers,
If Sudek 13 is willing to share with others what he has paid a princely sum for, then I thank him for his altruism. He'd certainly be a good person to know.
On the other hand, if he is collecting for the sake of collecting, without truly understanding the significance of what he is buying, that is another matter altogether.
Each of us has a specialty in which we are especially knowledgeable. Those few photos that come up for sale that we would like to examine at a reasonable price are frequently snatched away by Sudek 13 or others who appear to have unlimited resources at their disposal. Most of us don't. Specializing makes us particular apt at making the most of a new find that, to the general collector, would have no real significance.
So, Sudek 13, or one of your compatriots, if you are as I describe in my first paragraph, I would certainly like to make your acquaintance. My e-mail address is
egerrt@dmv.com.
Regards,
Richard
