Hi Nick,
That is a pretty one, I wish the full size tools were so bright and cheery.
Love it!

Love those old German Overtypes.

That Doll looks nearly identical to a Falk 456 that I have ...... wonderful engines!!!

You are still going strong Nick.

One of the great benefits of this 366 day challenge is that you are going to have a great digital record of 366 items in your collection.

You need to show something really big tomorrow for the Bonus Day this year.

Looks like a Bakelite sort of material from here.

I think you're right Daniel. The chips along the bottoms shows the same color inside.

No chips, I had to go back and check! It was taken on a cloth backdrop and the camera/editor did that. I was looking at the pics last night and thought “I don’t remember the base being broken…”
