Yep, considering its just over thirty years old, you would have to presume that maybe about 30% of the original 1000 have been lost due to natural attrition as you say. I'll certainly be keeping mine safe.

PS: Sorry bout the outbidding. For what its worth, I got into a whole lotta trouble with the missus for getting it. The conversation after the auction ended went something like this:
