So how much of The Nininger Collection went to The Huss Collection, AML, and 
how much of that went to the Max-Planc Institute?

Some one cover this already?
I read that the majority of the Nininger Collection was sold for $275,000,
far below the listed value.

You can read more about it in the book "Find A Falling Star".

Good Night,

Imagine some character named Nininger?  Though you're right - that's why he
was so successful!  Btw, the loaf of bread was $0.07.  And a car cost $450,
$60 less than a house in the Nininger golden age (e.g. Pasamonte, NM era -
1933).

Nininger paid $1 per pound for space rocks.  That's less than a quarter of a
US cent per gram "wholesale".   And who's complaining that the naughty
dealers like Ward turned around and sold them so "cheaply" at 5 cents to
$1.00 a gram, tsk, tsk...

Good health,
Doug

I remember Cohen's price compilations from 1880-1890 were more expensive.

I have some old WARDS catalogs from the 1920s and
1930s, if you think those prices are low, you should
see these!
for example, from a July, 1921 price list:
Ballinoo Australia, 2,278 grams $150.00
Canyon City Colorado, 321 grams $50.00
Seelasgen Germany, 809 grams $100.00
Steinbach Germany, 198 grams $67.50.
Crab Orchard mesosiderite 1023 grams $110.00
Morristown mesosiderite 307 grams $60.00

Cumberland Falls, complete stone, 135 grams $55.00
Holbrook 495 grams $30.00
Junvinas eucrite with crust 45 grams $24.00
Lundsgard Sweden, 94 gram complete stone $94.00

Mocs, complete stone 179 grams $20.00
Richardton complete stone 2943 grams $265.00
Trenzano Italy, 18 grams with crust $12.00

Now those were the good old days, of course, a new car
back then cost like $1000.00!
