Marfa Underwater in 1920

Two great original photos of Marfa from 1920 have recently surfaced on eBay. This tertiary function of eBay is often overlooked. I have no interest in buying these photos, but to see them is amazing. Before eBay, these photos would have only been seen by a few as they collected dust in an antique shop's glass case or passed from one collector to another unseen by the rest of us.

The photos themselves are educational and beautiful in addition to being valuable. Bidding ends in about 7 days. You can view the photos in the Marfa.Org Gallery or take a look at the auction here.

The auction may be over (@ $102.00!), but the images remain in our Gallery.
