    A Collection from South America

    Hello from Argentina!!
    IŽd like to share some pieces from my colection.
    I started using my first Worker in 1989, sold by Mr. Sal Glesser himself at the Blade Show, which was held in Knoxville, Tennessee, in those days.
    I begun collecting them soon, and presently own about three dozens. Last four arrived some few days ago, as I posted separately.

    You wonŽt find anynithing unknown here, but they are treasured by me anyway, and some of them even used. Mostly, I keep as collectors, mint in the box.

    Model Worker Clipit,


    Model Tim Wegner, Dragonfly, Pegasus, Cricket, Co-Pilot, Ladybug y Navigator.

    Very nice collection!

    Oh BTW, the Gunting was designed by Bram Frank.

    Thanks again friends!!

    Swingshot: pictures was taken side by side, so proportions are real between Salsa and Spin. I guess the Spin is a real cute small Spyder!
    Reagards, Abel

    Both. The Salsa is a bit larger than I always thought it was (until I got one) and the Spin is tiny, shorter than the Ladybug.
    I don't believe in safe queens, only in pre-need replacements.
