I have been a subscriber of True West magazine for several years. I just love the articles and illustrations. Here is a fine article of a "lost" Colt that a Colt collector found in his youth. Submitted for your enjoyment!

I can relate to the big money.  As a youth of ten I used to infrequent a pawn shop in Littlefield, Tx that literally had 2-3 dozen Colts many with  carved bone or ivory.  Yeah, I knew about such then as I read everything I could about them.  None sported tags over 90 bucks and I bet you could have got them to back way off that.  The kicker is that I couldn't dream of having that much money, didn't know of anyone with that sum, and I'd never seen much over a 10 dollar bill.  I think I was 15 before I saw my first twenty.

 

What a find....glad he hung on to it.
