Mike, once again you guessed correctly, I was able to pick up the Esposito. I've only ever seen a couple of them over the years and none have been in the condition this one is. I'm glad there weren't any other bids as the opening bid was the absolute max I was willing to spend. I'm hoping that with a little careful cleaning and conditioning it will come up real nice.
