Too bad it was repainted. Note the odd mix of graphics...and the down-tube graphics are clearly repros--the font is too thin. I suppose it's theoretically possible one of these could have come with this smorgasbord of graphics, but I can't say I've ever seen one like that.

Looking at it, I was reminded of what bad paint-jobs these things had. Especially the late-60s/early 70s.. solid colors in particular looked like they were applied by hand with a brush... respraying one of these to mimic an original would be a real challenge.. the paint on this one looks way too good..<g>
