Well, I have thrown down my maximum bid and shall await the outcome. Whatever its pedigree, I'll be thrilled if I win it.
The Seller recently commented that the vibrato cover is inscribed "Designed And Handcrafted For Hank Marvin".
Again, I'm most grateful for the comments and assistance. Should I win it, I will post some detailed pictures.
Thank you and best regards.
John
PS. I love the idea of the Shadows Clubs. Wish we had something similar in The States...Ventures Clubs
