It took a few weeks for me to figure out that someone had paid a fortune for them.I was curious and also wanted some copies for my sister.I will never forget what I found when I entered the magic words Heber Springs photographer.My eyes could not believe what we had ! At the time I was already selling items on eBay.Soon I asked my grandma on the other side to look through her box.Finally I asked my grandmother who was the subject of an original without a name on back.She thought for a while and said "I have no idea just throw it away". I put it on eBay and it fetched over $1000.My life changed from a former trainee stock broker into instant photography student.Everyday I was on the phone or computer with either Michael P. Mattis or Steven Kasher.These guys worked night and day brainstorming ideas and training me to do condition reports.Someday I will make my name known along with the most amazing stories about Mike Meyer.I still own almost all the known work of his beginning career.After two years it's finally all coming togetherAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7691109.post-1136323660928375962006-01-03T16:27:00.000-05:002006-01-03T16:27:00.000-05:00Loved your blogLoved your blog<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://fulltiltbonuscodes.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow"/>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
