No, but it matches a picture of a bubble gum machine that may have had an undocumented repair. Also, traces of freckle cream on it.

No not really...except for the Amelia Earhart luggage...the only luggage that loses itself. :)

Seriously, I didn't mean to rain on your marketing effort...it was just a wiseguy remark.

amelia / tighar / gillespie are always good for a laugh!! they could start their own comedy team!! :wink: seriously though it's a cool piece, bust of her face, & the fokker trimotor to the reverse side. 1928 vintage, not a recent franklin mint piece of junk.
