Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

Re: Large Advent e-bay auction?!

No, and those are not fully original, either. The tweeters look a little different so I'd guess one or both are not original. If they were made too far apart in time, they may sound a bit different. Someone else noted the grill cloth is not original, and he's right; but it also looks like the original black gauze under-fabric is missing. And the grill badges are on the wrong side as someone noted. Further, it looks like the front baffle is too dark and may have been painted black.

Getting the transmission of the grill fabric right is really important and I'd worry about that with these.

If they sound good, they are probably worth $150 on ebay, more from a local shop. But $500? Get serious!
