Antiquities That Mean Something!

Post by Rick H »

This is what happens when you're not feelin' well and have run out of reels to work on. Grandpa left this behind for me (1932 Hi-Std Model B). I always wished that the box for this thing was still around (as we all do). Not wanting to spend an arm & a leg for a ratty old original box, I decided to do it my way. There's enough "variation" built into this, so that it will "never" be mistaken for an original. Now...I have a box, hang-tag, parts list with exploded view and tissue paper, all aged to perfection! Grandpa (b. 1890 - d. 1985)
