Sure 'Nuff-- When my wife and I arrived at the sale this morning, we discovered that was the case-- It sold on Friday. The pictures in the listing showed it was a Ed. Standard.
The organizers of the sale said the purchaser was a 19 year-old, new collector who couldn't contain his excitement at buying the machine. They said he was almost giddy, telling everyone all about it.


If anyone knows who "Nick" might be, please pass on my contact info. He obviously lives relatively close to me and I would love to meet a new collector in the Northern Virginia area. I enjoy helping new collectors and have lots of parts that I'd be glad to give or sell cheaply to help him with restoring machines. After nearly 49 years of collecting, I have been downsizing considerably and have moved lots of parts and machines into others' hands. I'd love to meet "Nick"

Thanks!
