I put $5 on the set after I saw that. Downsizing.

We saw a collection sell at auction for over $700.00. That was 20 years ago. My husband and I were astonished. Someone sitting near us explained that there was a woodman and axe (?) set that was worth about $800.00 by itself. Spirited and memorable bidding war
