Agree Bob. Recent SOS validates your point. I was referencing a collector to collector price and considering the wear on this set. By the way Nurseswim, I like this set. Wear in all the right places of the lion masks assuming it is not camera flash. Wear on the high points front and back of the silk straps. Prices will be higher for the earlier brass based examples vs the later aluminum or pot metal based examples.
