ebay? people like me that can never have enogh Paramounts (working on the fifth dozen) just buy them and keep them in good company with their ancestors, brethren, and take them to the boards for exercise.

Although 76 is getting out of my preferred era, I've been known to give generously just to do them honor and make sure they have a great afterlife.
