Looks like about $15.00 worth to me, but might be worth more to someone else?

They go for about $.65 to $1.00 apiece. Maybe $.50 apiece if you find a large quantity. Some are worth more than others and some folks will pay more than others.

If there are 50 there then probably $30-$35.

Since you found those in your garage and can't remember where you purchased them, can you do me a favor?
Look in your gagage and check to see if you might have any birdy drifters. I'd be so kind as to take any of those off of you hand. wouldn't even charge you for the service :grin:

Luhr Jensen made both the Okie Drifter and the Birdie Drifter as I recall. Why were the discontinued probably $$$$$$ Time vs. profit just like everything else I would suppose.
