Latest editions to my collection

Hi All

Just thought I would share some pictures of some machines I picked up this month. All are original machines in very good condition.

Marcel, great additions to a great collection. Nice to see the record box has the lid stay. Many times this was removed. Is the leather handle present??. The Cody disc was a huge bonus. Can't remember if there are three or four known to date. Mega rare just the same... :shock: :D.

How on earth that decal survived so perfectly on the G&T 3 right below the crank handle is amazing. I doubt you could have found a worse place to put the decal to make it more vulnerable to wear.
