These guns are very difficult to determine the market on now. A lot of heavy hitters in big bore collecting have passed on and sales show it.
All of Middlebrook’s guns were sold over the course of 2 or 3 auctions last year and a lot of the guns sold for less that one may have expected.
Was Middlebrook the guy that owned 5 or 6 of the LC Smith 8's ?

Think the guy I'm thinking of lived in MD or PA and died 3 or 4 years ago .
