Very nice. Expensive though, certainly a collector's item considering it has the box and looks to have never been inflated!

All I can say is "wow". The catalog number pre dates the 4200 series which seems to have come into use in the mid to late 1950's. I recall seeing such a box in a local, long established sporting goods store in the mid 1970's. An inquiry with the clerk revealed that it had been there as long as anyone there could remember, and that the store owner wouldn't sell it.
As far as being pricey, like anything else, it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.
There is a lot of new old stock surfacing of late, I wish I had the wherewithall to obtain some of these.
