Loretta, the books aren't exactly clear on this one. The number you called out, C1UB-17665A, *should* have been the early number, but the books show it through...

In the Spring Special ads and on the lots, are the spinner 'caps a secondary option, or were they part of the S.S. package? Have you compiled a list of...
