Picked up some LRB types I didn't have, or had bad examples of. Early Christmas gift to myself, I suppose. Not all are in the greatest of shape.

The photos are done with strong lighting, the actual color in hand is darker.

Please correct or add to any attributions, if you like. It would be appreciated!
