Dieter3 Posted July 10, 2010 Posted July 10, 2010 New arrival, and making a few assumptions: I'm guessing that this is a rather late production piece? Definitely aluminum, really bright, polished. The frame is held together with staples rather than nails, and is somewhat smaller in height than others I have. Condition of the case in and out is really nice making me think this wasn't sitting around for too long and I think this is the later style box. Metal tabs on the back of the frame are also smaller and lack much corrosion. Came with a small aluminum special membership plaque with double backed tape. No idea if this really came with the award or not, but it must be more modern. Any ideas or confirmation of my guesswork??
Dieter3 Posted July 10, 2010 Author Posted July 10, 2010 Here it is sitting next to another one - notice the smaller size. The other one also has a dull cast, not bright at all - but not tarnished. It must be aluminum though. Would I be correct in guessing that they were not polished as a time saving step? I'm guessing the unpolished one is earlier? The box somewhat different in the covering, but I don't have a good pic. of that just yet:
