Ok not one of the rare versions, but this one is in lovely condition ! In hand that is, near to mint in fact and then under the scanner you can see the wear.........bugger !!
This was dealer purchase whom aquired it from a vet (British), so the first collection it will adorn is my humble lot.
A couple of interesting things to note on this one, the 'Wernstein design', 'rocky' what ever you guys call it, it has the 'solder swas' and flaw in the track.
Of little consequence I guess is that the catch is a left hander and in the hinge has a brass core pin which has a narrow incuse recess like a 'flat head' screw, the other end of the hinge pin hole is nicley solder filled and theres also a small portion in the screw head end.
