Bought my first one in 1960 with errands and odd jobs money (at the ripe age of 11) in 12 ga.
I have no recollection of their cost then, but I do remember cardboard "cans" with a steel top of RedDot for something like $2.95/# or thereabout.
Over my early years I added 16 ga. and 30-06.
Still have them in my shop although I have not used them in 40+ years.
In fact, a few years ago I cleaned them up, CLR'd them and put them in a vacuum sealed foodsaver type bag.
I have progressed in my toys over the years but they hold a special place in my memories.
