Ok Gang here is a Pic still in progress But this is the Surrey Wagon Set mainly the Top for this Pic Needed some Serious Cleaning Stains etc (Those Walgreen wipes to the rescue) also had a small 1 inch seam split which I repaired It looks Brand new now :DI posted on the new FB page & I forgot how much work it is to post a pic thru photobucket but here goes. Bench seat is not installed to save damage to Top & springs at this time. this is one of those Grails that just kept eluding us either thru timing or more likely Pricing this one was hidden in lot for a Great Price WOO HOO up until now the only 2 i ever saw in person was @ Turners Museum & Scotts Collection. Enjoy Dave & Donna

Wow, Dave, very nice piece. I am amazed at your (and others on the board) display area setup for your Marx collection.
As I don't have my copy with me at the moment, is this listed/pictured in Tom Heaton's Marx Encyclopedia?
