24 & 35 dollars for how many? That is some money in 1916. I also rather enjoy where it says suitable for developed neighborhoods.

The Rem-UMC and the Western catalogs list the prices as per 1000, so I would guess the Winchester price is also per 1000.
That "developed neighborhoods" gives me pause. My aunt & uncle were in domestic service for a wealthy Chicago lawyer. After WW-II he was ready to retire and looked around the country for where he believed his money would make him live the longest. He settled on the Stanford University medical center and bought a seven acre "estate" nearby at 284 Valparaiso. When I would visit them as a teenager, I shot several quail in the orchard with my aunt's Winchester Model 37 .410-bore. A few years ago when I was in California I drove through Valparaiso and where the "estate" was it is now wall to wall Mac Mansions.
