DESCRIPTION: A genuine 1970's Fattorini Standard. Made by one of the rarer manufacturers of the 1970's. Fattorini only switched over to producing the 1970's style of Golly badges late in the decade (in 1977). The production of these badges only lasted for a short period before a new range was introduced in 1979 hence their relative scarcity. Direct from the collection of Colin Dodds, a chance to add a real piece of history to your collection. In the box used by Colin for storage purposes.
CONDITION: Presented in excellent condition. No stress marks, scratches or chips. Metal is clean and bright and comes with original straight pin. Trivial overrun of red bow tie onto golly's right hand shoulder. See photos for full condition.
Offered for sale with low reserve.

FROM THE COLIN DODDS COLLECTION
In the Golly world, one person - above all others - stands out as being the leading figure in the research and cataloguing of the history and development of Robertsons and their famous mascot - Colin Dodds. Today's well informed collector owes much to his efforts with the Golly Checklist, which was started in 1991 and now in it's seventh edition. Check out the
History page for a timeline of the development of the Golly Checklist. The Golly Auction team are delighted to have been chosen to auction a number of items from Colin's personal collection as he looks to downsize. From rare prototypes to common acrylics, there will be something for everyone. All such items will be clearly marked.
