All: An eBay seller in Georgia (King Cotton Antiques) is apparently selling a large collection of foundry patterns from Glover. I had heard (and according to Hillman's book on the Glover Locomotive Works) that the pattern collection was going to be archived and kept complete. I see now 13 years after the removal of the collection from the old foundry site, that this is no longer the case. Not sure what all is for sale, as Glover made and did more than build (and rebuild) locomotives. So far what has been listed appears to be smaller structural items.
