This price seems a little too high...

Age probably has something to do with that one.

The thing is, Decos like that are almost a dime a dozen on the collectors market, with just about every collector having at least one. Hell, I even have on myself that I got for $100, including shipping. Other traffic signal collectors also agree that it's overpriced (want to say most people'd value them around $100 to $200 depending on the condition, maybe $400 to $600 for an entire cluster like that, at least IMHO).

Anyways, here's an early Federal Signal 12 inch light that I'd probably jump on for the price alone, even if it does lack the background and visor, since early Federal Signal lights like this seem to be hard to find...
However... uh...
Just take a look for yourself:

Hayes Track Appliance Co. is where the Hayes part of Western Cullen Hayes comes from.
Federal Signal bought Hayes and absorbed it into their Western Cullen Division back in the 70s, so I wouldn't be surprised if WCH still primarily brands much of their track hardware as just "Hayes", as seen there.

Now it makes me wonder where Cullen comes from. Western is pretty obvious to signal fans, or at least I hope it is

That's honestly a good question. Not even WCH's own website explains where that part of the name came from.

I know this is benefiting charity and all, but i find the way these books are priced to be rather costly...
