Awesome, a blast to watch. Sort of feel like I've been to Spirit of '76 University.
Thanks

| Hey Guys! I have one of the first generation Spirit of 76 244:1800s in the original box that is in excellent condition. The seal unfortunately is worn on it, but other than that, it looks like new. I have owned it since I got the complete set new back in the 70's.....just curious what they are really worth?

IS YOURS THE PRESIDENTIAL LETTERED SEAL OR UN-LETTERED SEAL? - AVERAGE VALUE FOR LETTERED SEAL MINT CAN BE FROM $55.00 TO OVER $100.00 WITH BOX - UNLETTERED SEALS MINT $30-45 AND ALL OTHERS WHICH WOULD RANGE IN CONDITION TO POOR $5.00 AND UP GOOD TO EXCELLENT $15-$25.00 - NOTE -THERE IS ALWAYS A CHANCE YOU COULD GET LESS OR MORE ON ANY OF THE ABOVE ALSO - LOT OF VARIATIONS ON TYCO "VALUE" - MOSTLY ANY PLACED VALUE ON TYCO IS MARKET DRIVEN -HOPE THIS HELPS YOU SOME - BRIAN

Mine is the Lettered Seal first addition for sure....the train is in excellent shape, but because I handled it a lot as a kid, the seal is not in the best condition and is far from mint. I really enjoyed your video, and I had no idea about the variations over the years!! Good stuff! I will post a picture of it soon and get your opion. Anybody outthere looking to buy one of these????
