I had a heart attackwhen I got it for $26.00 recently on eBay. Besides beingin great shape it is the first F-6 I have ever seen with partof the ad stamped at the ice pick end (JAX on both sides).Has anyone else seen an F-6 with something other thanthe patent date stamped at the ice pick end?Next issue I will have an F-6-UL to show from Mt Clemens,Mi. That should get Jim Kaiser’s heart ticking a littlefaster.
