That is a tough one Charley. To use the real estate appraisers term, it is hard to find "comps" as there are few if any. As always, the value is what a buyer is willing to pay. I realize I haven't told you anything you don't already know so I'll tell you something else you already know; several to many thousand dollars.

Thanks Jim. You are correct & I suppose it doesn't matter, I'm just happy I found a holy grail in near mint shape.
That just does not happen every day. :mrgreen:

Charley,

I'd say it is a bit of an understatement that you don't come across one of those every day :D I'm sure many of us would love to see photos when you get a chance.
