Actually these initial batches were TIG-welded (apparently to fulfill 
production obligations while the Tim Neenan-designed frame lugs were being 
cast).  Note the plain Stumpjumper lettering on this frame. I always regarded 
the lugged Stumpies as a big improvement over these early TIG models, but agree 
this so collectible the price isn't too far out of line; this will surely hold 
it's value (because it's so rare).
