Cute little dude from the desert. These were referred to in the early years of the hobby as "Arizona Micas". I never found any myself, but have handled a few. This is a nicely colored one, with one side being quite smooth (shown) while the other side is more crude and creased. In 1980, these priced at $20 for a nice one. I haven't paid attention to where they are now, but chances are they have not gone down in value ! Maybe a real steal ?

$20 + postage
