Years ago I missed out on one of them by seconds. It was in near perfect shape. A friend of mine was at at a sale less than 2 miles from my house. He called me from his cell to tell me about it. He said it had no price on it, I jumped in the truck and was there in minutes only to see a fella handing the owner a $10 bill for it.
Hind sight's 20/20, but I shoulda told him to carry it till I got there, I wasn't expecting it to sell in the 2 minutes it took me to get there. All he told me on the phone is it said Lumberjack on it. I was sure if it was one of them plastic boxstore lumberjacks made Wen I think it is.
I don't think they are a high dollar saw, but I think they look cool and have got to be loud.
The condition the of the one I lost out on was beautiful... I would have gladly gave $10. :cry:

I noticed it has and adjustable front handle for balancing with different bar lengths. Kinda cool.

That Craftsman 1200 is in pretty nice shape. If it turns over and recoil still works that is a huge plus. It also has the helper and the saftey strap intact.
Those motors were made by McCuloch Aviation. Reed Prentice and Mac got together in 1946 and started building those saws. I have a few extra owner book copys for that saw too.

I am not into 2 man saws, but I'm thinking that saw is EASILY worth the $150 in that condition, probably a good bit more. What do you think?
