LOL !!  We have a lot of Pilgrims here !!  Ever heard of Bo Pilgrim !!  Or maybe you do not like fried chicken !!

I haven't laughed this much at a forum thread for awhile.   ;D ;D

But you'll have to explain this Bo Pilgrim reference.

Perdue is far closer. I guess they've monopolized the market for Missouri, because I've never heard of Pilgrim (except Billy Pilgrim....a karma point to the first person who gets that reference).

My neighbor used to be head of commercial sales for Bo! 

He looks like a Pilgrim to me (more ways than one)!  LOL

I bet that is exciting Pelady!  Bet they go all out for that. 

Down here it is commercialism, commercialism, commercialism.  They have had Christmas lights up and pushing Christmas (as a buying opportunity and not the religious) for over a month.  It's like they are slowly but surely skipping over/blocking out Thanksgiving (except Black Friday) to increase the bottom dollar.

Just a tiny bit of the festivities.  They are making huge plans for 2020 and the 400 year anniversary celebration.

Today was the the historically accurate chronological parade, visually bringing to life America’s rich heritage representing each century from the 17th through the 21st.

OK, I see nobody got the Billy Pilgrim reference. He's the protagonist in Kurt Vonnegut's novel 'Slaughterhouse 5."

KC, please exercise your moderator's special powers and give the winner (me) a karma point! ;) :D

OK, nevermind all that! The question is, what's this little box gonna go for IF, as i suspect, paint is not original and snipe hinges replaced? Before you answer, I'll add in one word about condition, RUTH!!! Estimate is 1-3k and yes, BP COUNTS! in guesses to all stump people on forum!

My guess is $1800.
