Default Re: Green Ekco AD65

You probably remember the threads from a number of years back Herald when there were "discussions" about whether original colour versions of these sets had ever existed and then a green one was reputed to have sold for an enormous amount. Then both the sale and the provenance were disputed as well.

It went on and on for a long time. At least the Gerry Wells "tribute" reproductions were wooden! Done, I suggest in the manner that he previously knocked out his own amplifiers and TV's. I thought it was nicely ironic that [apparently] sets like the AD65 were made in bakelite due to a wood shortage in the first place and Gerry reversed that
