This post has been in and out of the internet during the last years, I have read about the "portuguese barn" in at least 10 different forums. It has been talked about in blogs too. If memory serves me, it was not a "find" but the inheritance of a compulsive buyer.

There was another one like that in upstate New York I believe.

I never saw this one before Raul. But it would not surprise me that what you said is true. just imagine if it was an actual find though!
