Hi, Darryl, List, It will be interesting to see if a frenzy occurs!
If anyone wants a look at the American auction site: http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/public.sh/pubweb/publicSite.r?sContinent=USA&screen=index http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/public.sh/pubweb/publicSite.r?sContinent=USA&screen=index and the meteorite catalogue itself: http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/public.sh/pubweb/publicSite.r?sContinent=EUR&screen=catalogue&iSaleNo=15648 http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/public.sh/pubweb/publicSite.r?sContinent=EUR&screen=catalogue&iSaleNo=15648 Decent close-ups can be viewed by using the "flash version" of the photos.
