That would be my guess- the GI mags I’ve bought from PSA were D&H.

Magpul certainly has their share of contracts for magazines with their PMAG series. However, any loss of sales to the PMAG are probably made up for by the increase in civilian shooters and new firearm owners. It would be nice to see the actual sales numbers of magazines to get a better insight, but I don't see that happening.

Hmmm... are 80s and 90s GI mags New in Bag that were freely available in the 90s worth anything extra now?

To certain ban states, yes they are.

The very first ones were a shiny dark green with white number on them. I assume they were somewhat brittle based on the only one I ever had having the area that contacts the bolt hold open cracked off.

According to this:

The mint green follower was to correct a mystery problem with Sanchez magazines. The black followers had been around and working for years.
