September 01, 2006: Plymouth Plantation: Governor William Bradford for Sale on eBay
"A rare facsimile edition by Governor William Bradford of Plymouth Plantation fame, goes up for auction on the popular internet site eBay. The 1896 facsimile edition of the manuscript is one of approximately 100 surviving copies in the world; only 5 or so are thought to be in private hands, the rest are in museums and universities. The facsimile manuscript is expected to fetch $6,000 to $12,000...but don't be surprised if Pilgrim Nation outbids the predictions for this rare gem."
