Look What I Found!

I went down to Crawfordsville today to check out the antique shop, Cabbages and Kings. To my surprise, I found this:

A Breyer Mastercraft clock! It was made in 1949 and I have never, ever seen one despite the fact that I have been collecting since 1963!

The vendor wants $95 but is willing to take $85 for it. I left it at the shop because I wanted to come home, go through my books, and verify that yes, I had found what I thought I had found.

The Model Trading Post's Value Guide values the piece at $450.

Gulp.

I am going to drive back down there tomorrow and purchase it.

Wow. I can hardly believe my good fortune!
