My Ancott directory is a bit old but so is your Beckstein. According to
my 1995 edition a mocel 'C' runs about $88,000.00.  A model 'B' averages
around $75,000.00 depending on several finishes available. These of
course are suggested retail so you can probably knock off an additional
couple thousand from there. I would then subtract two or three thousand
more for the age. That should get you pretty close.
