that particular restored copy is worth approx $12K... an unrestored 4.0 would sell for 40-45K (in fact I just sold one for $45K), but not a restored copyComment

I totally get what Brazoo is saying... it's like why there are so many fantasy stories where the heroine learns that her parents are not her biological mother and father, and that she's really a princess or whatever. There is a degree of wish fulfillment in going on, to want something other than a kid's mundane life of schoolwork and chores.... why not go off and live with a millionaire, become a superhero, drive the batmobile etc.
Harry Potter works the same way, as kidlit... popular fiction for youngsters is a ghetto of plucky orpans making their way in the grown up world. Hugo, another recent example. Snow White as the classical example that we are being bombarded with right now in movies and TV.Comment
