| What’s the going price for a mid 1950’s “corn cob” Remington 870 wingmaster 16ga in average condition? |

I am.
Not sure how much I’m willing to spend. |

I purchased one from a private sellers at a Mobile, AL gunshow last year for $250 + four boxes of shells. Had to seriously clean the moving parts but it sings now.
It was a very good buy.

$250 is indeed a good buy. I declined on a 16 ga 870 many years ago and I still second guess that decision. It had that cheesy pressed checkering and noisy rattling action but it was light and did it ever fit well and handle nicely.
