Here's a fair enough lineup of the GBD series circa '98.

Hi Jerry,
I just took a look at your web page. Here's a little information on GBD. In October, 1996, Mike Hagley had some info of GBD which I downloaded. Here's his list in probable descending order of grade:
Pedigree

Pedigree I

Pedigree II

Straight Grain

Prodigy

Bronze Velvet

Virgin

Varichrome

Prestige

Jubilee

New Era

Prehistoric

International

Universe

Speciale Standard

Ebony

Tapestry

New Standard

Granitan

Sauvage

Sierra

Penthouse

Legacy

Concorde
Almost forty years ago my first burners, Obelisk6, were a New Standard and an Ebony. The Ebony - a classic English billiard - is still in my rotation. You made out just fine, pal.
