A 1969 135.041 (posted by Dsio here) came out really nice after a full service:


According to the personalized caseback, this was a gift to Ernest Bader for his contributions to STRIVE (Society for Training in Rural Industries and Village Enterprises). According to Wikipedia, Ernest Bader was a Swiss guy who started a chemical company, Scott Bader, in the U.K. In 1951, he gave the company to the employees under terms of common ownership.
