Someone is selling an original 1899 2 volume Mansfield's History of the Great Lakes on ebay. The reprints are going for well over $200/set. The "Buy it now" option on these originals is $650, which is pretty reasonable. An original set sold on abebooks.com for $800 a few years ago, so this seems like a decent price. The set looks VERY good. Original HGLs are seldom seen in this condition. This will likely be the last original set to come up for many years. I already have an original set and I don't know who's selling them. I'm just posting it here to alert people.
