Anecdotally, the JICO Shibata replacements have not been considered unfavourably. Personally, I would not consider an OEM replacement at that price. Kevin (KAB) bought some to test and he mentioned that initially tracking was poor but after breaking in that things improved considerably.
At the price though, apart from sentimental reasons, I would seriously consider whether it is still economical to resurrect such an old cartridge especially since the JICO and other OEM replacements do not implement the tie-wire suspension design of the original so you would have to expect that the performance of the original (when it was fresh!) would not be achieved.
