    I wonder what those monsters cost back in 72/74...

    On Feb 1, 1974, a fully loaded 35 went for $5395.00 US, and a full 55 went for $8795.00 US. I have the price list including individual module prices; I'll post it now.

    And how do you compare 70's USD with today's prices? just double it?

    According to these guys

    http://www.dollartimes.com/calculators/inflation.htm

    $8795 in 1974 is equivalent to $39,837.95 in 2008.

    For comparison, the average price of a house in the US in 1974 was $39,000.

    I scanned a bunch more Moog literature. You can see it on my Flickr site:
