Settrigger, when I got out of law school in 1956 I went to work in Washington DC for the Labor Department. There was one pawn shop that had a lot of guns and plain HiWalls were $35. Of course the value of the dollar has plummeted in the last half century, a dollar in 1956 would buy about as much as eight bucks today. So those HiWalls cost the equivalent of $280.
