I bought it in 1957. A mint 41 byf Mauser with a near mint holster and two magazines. I paid $35 in installments that took most of the summer to pay off. I traded it off for a really nice octagon barrel 1892 Winchester around 1963, which I subsequently traded off for a near perfect 1908 Commercial Luger in 1964 and kept going from there.
