Looks just like page three
Full marks Rob!
Yes, it's "The Other Meteorite Man" pictured on page 3 of Robert Haag's 1997 Field Guide. How it ended up being sold at auction in a "forced sale" on behalf of the British government, I have no idea.

<< how much did it go for? >>
I won it and another 50.8kg individual http://fernlea.tripod.com/163.jpg at a very good price, thanks to some poor quality original photography :-)
Cheers,
Rob.
