jacon4, That is why it is so wonderful to have you and others that have their specialties giving of their knowledge, talents here on the forum.  Most people don't even know about the "Mistakes" sections of auction houses and museums and you helped enlighten them.

I truly enjoy reading/learning the more-in-depth information myself.

It's dealers & museums that have mistake rooms, auction houses specialize in selling other peoples mistakes. It's not that mistakes don't have value, they do, it's more like it does not fit into a particular collection because it wasn't what the buyer thought it was. You can get some pretty good deals on other folks mistakes!
