The Don made his Notts debut vs. Darlingrad (we lost). Best £6k Notts ever spent?

It was 50 years ago today
Jimmy Sirrel taught the boys to play
They've been going in and out of style
But they're guaranteed to raise a smile
So may I introduce to you
The man you've known for all three weeks
Harry Kewell's Lonely Hearts Club Band
I thought it was less than that, £1,000 max and maybe just £600, hence Bob Worthington joking that he cost £500 of it.
I don't think Notts had £6,000 back then.
Having said that, I was a child at the time and only had my dad's word for it.
Post Guides say Richie Barker cost £10,000 in December 1968, Les Bradd came for ten times less than that a year before. No fee given for Masson, presumably because it was a joint price for the two players and no actual split figure was ever discussed.
