What might I have to shell out? Thanks again for a very enjoyable thread with great photos.

Well...
the Havana cost $250
(btw... flipped the Havana for a cool 1200 and bought my Estralita, another great deal!)
the Kay was about $350
the Continental tricone was $499

each of these (pics in my previous post) I repaired, reset the neck, set up, etc (minus the Kay, sent that to a 'renowned' National repairman...wish I had done it myself, the neck reset was poor at best)

but the 'good bargains' are out there!
