An obit that gives some info on one of the brothers https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/name/gary-apsit-obituary?pid=153025654 There is another Indian Chief like yours here on Instappraisal. In the comments someone called wjm0720 has left their email and says they’ll tell you what there’s sold for so might be worth trying that.
