some of these "toys" can fetch a pretty penny! Just saw a Japanese Motorcop from the 60s on eBay with an asking price of $1500!!!

If i was going to spend that sort of money i'd buy this gem. Was awarded to 1st Place Winner at Lake Perkoilili claypan motorcycle speedway near Kalgoorlie WA some time between WW1 and WW2. Been in the private collection of an old retired antique dealer for the past 30 years. Awesome piece of Australian motorcycling history.

I really like the way it shows how much it's been touched and handled. Not just an ikon but a loved piece of history.
