Dang, someone's almost as excited about this as I am...

I gave 355 for it, and that includes shipping. From what I could see, the original lacquer is about 55-65%, and the bell has a wrinkle in it. The serial number indicates that it was made probably 1949, I believe. It should, and that's a big should, be here around Thursday.
