From my observation, in the last 14 yrs, I had seen about an equal number of Drums vs Hindus. With the find of (8) Drums that had pushed it in favor of Hindu, for rarity. Now there were 6 Hindus in the last REA and my thinking is they are both about the same again. I would like to know if that (100) number of Hindus was ever substantiated? That sounds like an awful lot compared to what I have seen. Of course I haven't seen everything but I am fairly active in the hobby. regards
ps...Lew Lipset, I believe, has thought the Hindus were more scarce than Drums. Drums might be more valuable because of the aura of the T206 set.
