Interesting. I've been putting it all together in one document to keep things accessible.

I know this is a bit of a complicated question, but if I were to ask who the "manufacturer" was, what would the answer be?

As well, if we've got enough information so far, would this be considered generally common and of low value, or worth selling at live auction?

Prices seem to be all over the place. I'll be photographing it properly soon, because it's in better condition than it looks in the pictures. When I do, I'll post the shot.
