Hey Carl! Good to hear from you!
I remember when one of those went up for auction on ebay. Unfortunately I did not bid on it and have not seen one since. I have one that is off grade and would love to upgrade mine. The only thing that I think that you might be remotely interested in is a pre-pro oval Hauenstein tray. BTW, I lived in MN for 11 years and was a frequent participant of the G-N-T.
