WANTED Early Plastic artefacts

[Tengu]

Got a good collection of hornware but Im studying early plastics now

Anyone got anything pre war?

Im looking at things like gutta percha and bakerlite.

I have lots to trade

Dunno about pre war but hang on to your plastic chip forks as they have just become illegal, anticipate a rise in value on the black market

I used to have a gutta percha golf ball in my bits box. Not sure if it’s still there but I’ll check & you can have it if it is.

 

[Tengu]

Gutta percha golfball would be a classic! Yes please.

(But dont go to too much effort)

What would you want for it?

 

[gra_farmer]

If your still looking, I have an bakelite tray?

Gutta percha golfball would be a classic! Yes please.

(But dont go to too much effort)

What would you want for it?

As I said, if it’s still there you can have it. No use to me.

The tray would be nice?

Seeing as I am on a successful roll...surprise?

Sorry Tengu.
I’ve turned the junk boxes upside down & no sign of that golf ball. If it shows up I’ll let you know. May have got lost when we moved house.
