However the older I get the less reliable my memory is but I believe these prices are correct, perhaps some of our older members will be able to recall those adds as well.

Geez, Lon, you've had your hands on Lugers for a few years. Hats off to you!
Back in 1964 (or was that 1965) my dad gave me my first gun, a Remington Nylon 66 22lr, that I still prize and own. I believe it retailed for $39. However, I wish he had bought me a Luger instead.
