Hi Dissed,
I, too, loved my slide rule. It was a Post Versalog with all the scales -- and I was familiar with many of them. It included a beautiful hard leather case. Remember the folded scales on those fat ones like the Versalog? That way one could do a string of calculations with only a single slide or cursor movement for each value.
I bought it and its case from a brother (Paul Lane, now deceased just a few years ago, and who lived at the time in Newton, Iowa) who had attended a single semester at Iowa State University. He quit because of conscience -- you know, attending an institution of higher learning, realizing that the end was right around the corner.
I thought $35 was a good price even at that time.

Looking at that list I'd be depressed except I'm getting some interviews, looking for clients and queries are going out to agents. And I'm knee deep in stuff to do being a son, father, husband and grandfather.
