A Hectic Day at James and Sons

If anything, hectic is an understatement. First of all I had some image editing to do from Friday, then I had to check the April T-Bid folder and make sure that the images were all there, and of sufficient quality (to be fair, only four were so ghastly that they had to be redone, but a few others needed extra editing).

Then, as soon as we could so so without leaving the premises entirely unattended, a colleague and I finished off filling up the first van load of stuff for Thursdays auction (there will be at least one, possibly two more).

The third major event of the day was a problem with some of the medal images being attached to wrong lot numbers for the March sale.

Add to that a couple of small items needing imaging for the April sale and you have a very full day indeed.

All of today’s images are of lots in the April T-Bid sale, mostly the stuff from Friday that I edited today…

This is a new record for an auction as opposed to press release image - a nine parter.
