Hmm never thought it would be worth more. It cost me about $250, bought at one of the posher men's clothier shops back in the day.
I liked it has a wooden pole inside of it over the metal tubes, its sort of hefty, one could conceivably beat someone to death before it snapped.... I had tired of nearly buying a new umbrella each year because the metal ones bent or the cloth would break lose from the ribs...
It is manual over spring loaded, its a two handed affair to open it. That was the only 'downside'.
