Due to this I can't believe many of these were produced. Has anybody here ever seen one of these in person?

Two years later I finally landed this one tonight thanks to a huge assist from Rob (ooo-Ribay)! After doing a bit of research I learned that in 1970 there were 931 residents in Canaan Ct. This was likely the only opportunity I would ever have to add one of these to my collection. I owe you one Rob! I can’t wait to have it in my hands.
