Tom--

Cool...By chance is there a CF-100 model in your catalog? I have a Topping CF-100 Mk.4, light greenish grey, said to have been made about 1960-61. It was given to me by a cousin who had become tired of it falling off the top shelf of his closet every time he opened the door! I have it in a more prominent spot, a display case in my loft. Wonder what it's worth. Hm. Ought to see if anything comparable is on evilBay out of curiosity!
