John Neal on Feb 28, 2010 - 5:36 PM My dad had two of these when I was growing up. Just p/u the thing from his basement. I am shocked the batteries didn't explode and make a mess after all these decades. This one is in Grey and is a J-1 model with 9-S-5311-L on the top cover. It also has the number 5293-L-5 on the handel.
