It's because they are nice that I suspect I won't get them. I'll wait and see.

Fingers crossed.

Well - I got all five, for a total of £5.72, inclusive of postage and packing. Not a bad deal at all.

Heck no that aint bad, thats one great deal!

£5.72 ? you got them for nothing and just payed the postage!

Sure you haven't typo'd and moved the decimal points two places left................

No typo, despite being very tired. But they are not mounted or framed.

 

The same seller has some other old prints / engravings from Grose's Antiquities for sale at knock-down prices, so I've bid for some of those too. My guess is that the seller either doesn't really know what they are selling, or it's a con and I won't actually get anything for my money. I suspect it is the former, but I'll let you know when (or if) they arrive.

Yup, something doesn't ring true.

If it's a con - then I won't actually lose a great deal, but will have learned my lesson. If the offers are genuine, then

Agreed, £ 5.72 isn't much of a gamble, it might well pay off.

The gamble it seems, has paid off. These five items do appear to be from the original publication. I will scan them and place them here and in the gallery.
