HERE IS A NICE EXAMPLE OF THE 1922-1926 SERIES OBSERVATION CAR. IT IS PAINTED IN THE MILWAUKEE ROAD COLORS BUT HAS "AMERICAN FLYER LINES" ACROSS THE TOP. THERE WERE MANY VARIATIONS IN THIS SERIES OF CARS.CONDITION IS TYPICAL OF A WELL-PRESERVED BUT ALSO WELL-PLAYED WITH CAR THAT IS AT LEAST 90 YEARS OLD! (WE SHOULD ALL LOOK THIS GOOD AT 90!)IT IS A COMPLETE CAR THAT YOU CAN DISPLAY AND RUN AS IS, OR USE AS A RESTORATION CANDIDATE. I THINK MOST COLLECTORS LIKE THESE "AS FOUND" INSTEAD OF RESTORED.SOMEWHERE IN ITS LIFETIME THE ROOF WAS REPAINTED A MEDIUM BROWN. TO MY KNOWLEDGE THE FACTORY ROOF WAS ALWAYS BLACK. BUT THE BROWN COLOR GOES WELL WITH THE ORANGE AND I'D LEAVE IT THE WAY IT IS.THIS IS A DUPLICATE IN MY COLLECTION AND IT'S TIME FOR IT TO FIND A NEW HOME. THANK YOU FOR LOOKING!
