The Gibson Dove, Hummingbird and J-200 from the 1966 catalogue are something to behold!

I could while away many hours perusing those! Aside from the instruments, they are great documents of long forgotten endorsers. The Gibson catalogs are particularly rich there. And the prices. Oh My. A Roy Smeck for $50.

Great stuff Andy. I'm with you Joachim, love those Dove's and especially the Hummingbirds. I had a buddy that had a 66 Hummingbird and about 73' his girlfriend sat on it and smashed it.
