I think your estimate of 35 to 50 is a reasonable one for a working set. An E-816 recently went for $14 plus $30 shipping on ebay (a nonworking 5 tube set rather than a working 6 tube set). Mid century modern stuff seems to be popular and you might get someone who just has to have it and would pay more but I wouldn't.

My guess, and thats all it is, in an antique store they would probably have it marked at $75. At a radio swap meet...$30.
Cheers,
Bob
