Most have seen my first 31-S which is in really nice shape. I was shopping at an antique store while celebrating my 45th Anniversary with the Mrs. and came across this 31-S. Was very excited to see I wouldn't have to try to negotiate with this one as the tag on it was $15 firm... How'd I do? Thanks in advance on your grading thoughts...  |

EF-45, I remember when they were $15. At that time you could get an SVDB for between $75-90. A long long time ago in a land far far away!
