Blue book on a Sweet 16 A5?

I'm definately not going to sell it. I'm just wondering what they're going for these days. 95% condition, bought new as a gift for my grandfather in '58.

I don't know about the Blue Book but several years ago a local dealer tried to sell me one. He was asking $600. I loved the way it felt coming to the shoulder, but I didn't have the cash.

I recently saw one sell on auction for $1250 in excellent condition. of course, all that really means is 2 or more people wanted it.
