Some Rod Prices from Lang's Today

These are UNOFFICIAL--I wrote them down while watching and bidding today. I may be wrong on some so don't sue me. But from a close perusal, it's clear that some rods went above auction estimate (designated by an asterisk *). Those that went 20% below auction estimate are designated by an "@" sign. The rest fell into the auction estimates, give or take 10%.

The belles of the ball were Edwards (3200 for a Model 53 is a record for a Bristol Edwards), Thomas, Dickerson, Garrison, and Payne. The later Leonards and a few of the trade rods didn't do so well. Overall the prices realized were well within auction estimates.
