Same with BL460s and Drums. $40 for a brown Hindu sounds about right, and that's probably around what I paid for the one in the picture. $50 was about my limit, but I went above that for the Broad Leaf because I knew it was very tough to find. I always had a Tolstoi (Brashear) from my teenage collection (two Lenoxes, a Tolstoi, and two Polar Bears), so I never got too excited about them, but I did get a few more in better condition. (The one in the picture is Camnitz arm at side, which I got in 92-95.)

I still have all my SCDs from back then. I'll have to get them out of storage sometime and look at the ads, which probably still have my annotations. I could probably figure out when I got some of my cards and what I paid for them.
