That price would seem on the top side of these. Condition is everything on those. Body and paint are the things that make them.

Number 89 sold for $161. I was holding out for number 150 and it was removed from the auction on the last full day of the auction. Poor business practice to say the least.

and you didn't buy it??? Could have made yourself some easy money, I paid $100 for the same bench but that was many moons ago and it was a steal back then.

When looking at benches just think of it this way, if you had to buy the modern equivalent in quality what would it cost you? $1800-2500 or more? What a steal at $161!

Got this one a long time ago, $165.00 plus $500.00 to have it painted. Boy how times have changed.
