Another EKI Spange to judge...please

[Robert P.]

Good news you guys. The dealer placed the Spange on hold ('Sold') giving me time to decide. The 'Sold' sign shocked me, thinking it had sold to another. He just wrote and asked if I still wanted it, and said that it was still on hold for me. What a deal. I guess I learned how this dealer does business...the honorable way. Was I ever wrong! So the badge is on it's way.

And, Walt, I hope you don't mind me using the photo you sent me for comparison. I'll remove it if you want...just let me know.

George,

Thanks for the photos. I remember seeing another example of this same badge with the pin assembly as yours. It must have been a 1st and 2nd pattern.???

Thanks...fine badge.
