    I bought this from another member a few weeks ago. It needs some care, but is a burner.
    Here are the pictures.

    Hi Ken congratulations on 4 brilliant scores, of all the 111's, this older version with the greener coloured case and this style of regulator wheel is my favourite.
    I am a proud owner of a 111 in this series with the green regulator wheel, which was not as common as the red colour, i would love to get hold of one with the white regulator wheel,those seem to be well sought after.

    Man, looks like it still has the original cork pip in the NRV!

    I should have taken a better picture of the wheel. I just thought there were so many already.

    Yeah, old cork pip. Is the cork replaceable?
