Duco Major.
« on: October 11, 2017, 04:09:41 pm »
So here we have a Duco Major, it's my new project and I know absolutely nothing about it other than it is from roughly 1940-50 ish and is in a rather nice red/ purple color.

If anyone knows anything or thinks they know something then please do tell!

Never seen or heard of one, and even Google doesn't know!

Big project you have there.

That's what I thought it was at first.

I am going to take a look at it in a few weeks so I will keep you all posted!
