Folks all the best to one and all for 2020 No affiliation to shop or seller, but i saw this today in UK antique shop has anyone seen this before, and is it a genuine item? BTW i have No interest in buying it, but if one of you want it, i can give you antique shop details cheers paul
Interesting piece I’m also curious as to its authenticity. Im sure someone much more knowledgeable will chime in soon .
Well its a famous advert, from 40th anniversary in 2009 - but so far searching online, the speedmaster is normally in the photo as well
The main base is a standard heavy piece which can hold whatever photos on the front... hung at 4 screws !
Wow, would love to own this. I've got the 40th Speedy, the 40th Pen and the newspaper. Boy would that complete the package.
Someone has already asked me, so he has first mover advantage. If he doesnt buy it after all, then i’m PM you asap
Folks Things happen fast in Speedy land !!!! It appears that first and second movers are no longer interested FYI - The item is at Maltings Antiques Station Road, Unit 3 Sawbridgeworth Herts CM21 9JX not sure if any of you know this part of the world, but there are 7-8 very good large antique shops in this huge complex (on both station side and river side), plus one shop in the village itself, and you could quite easily spend a whole day here hunting. My brother visited yesterday, and got the seller down to £170, but you could press harder for sure its a well made item apparently, made of metal and my bro reckons it could weigh up to 15 kg ! (Not sure if they are willing to ship or not though?) best of luck, paul pls let us know the outcome if one of you snag this
Agree - According to my Bro, its a fantastically made, heavy piece - metal and glass over the print/photo advert i’d love it myself, but i’m in Texas, and have too much “stuff” already
