Joan has seen mine and confirmed him being a team player... :lol:. The ribbon was added at a later date...maybe by a little girl..??. I decided to leave it on."

My money is on Wayne to find a red one, considering all of the other odd/rare stuff he has found... maybe even the entire Victor Ballpark... :lol:

Thank you Curt, I wish that were true. Unfortunately, my luck is as good as everyone else's.

Since needle tins have been posted....I thought I would share a new one I just got. I have wanted one of these Colibri tins for years and last week, my wish came true. It now completes my Colibri (although the tin did not come with the machine new). I'm still trying to find info on the little orange tin that came with my machine....was it a "sample" tin to get a proud, new owner started..?.
