Wow Ron..nice group there..what a great "niche" collection. We usually never see more than one Tropic model at a time. Question..that British bakelite job..is that pretty close to the tropic made in 42 look wise?
Ive been searching for that particular model thinking someone may not recognize it as a Tropic and it may get sold fairly inexpensively.
Model 42-706C is the one I mean
