Yep. So few people know that, I could pass it off as a genuine and get $1k+ for it. All the wheels n trucks are legit.

I saw one recently went for $1.8k, passed off as an OG Zephyr. Nuts.

The JA on the far left is a signed. Very lovely.

Nice line up, if that non red board upsets the visual impact for you, you could always send it to me

That reminds me at one stage I bought some 35mm film stills from the film that popped up on eBay I’m not sure if I sold them but probably did I sell almost everything. :roll:

You mean the translucent Zephyr? Sadly, it's close enough red for me. Like you say Steve, you'll only sell it anyway and it would be lost in some storage cupboard there.

These are the jelly moulds
