AOK4 Posted 5 August , 2018 Share Posted 5 August , 2018 I don't understand all the fuss about these albums. There are similar albums popping up on ebay very regularly. It's all about the auctioneer having the right connections to get it in the press and making some more money probably... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornetsfan Posted 5 August , 2018 Author Share Posted 5 August , 2018 (edited) Hello Jan , Had the album been centered around Bisseghem , I suspect you would have considered it differently . I guess it fills column inches in the papers at a quiet time of the year and without much need for actual journalism . But they are still interesting images . As a collector of original albums , I prefer the story an album has to tell , rather than just individual photos . We have millions of images now freely available online , perhaps we have all become just a little bit spoiled .
