511 coffin with a floral motif
#8

Ah, that is why it has a peeling clear finish; it's had a clear top coat over the decals.

I still like it; the colour and flowers go together. I will keep it as is.

When I buy sets with well done, historical types of modifications, I almost always keep them as-is. If the modifications have been poorly done, then I always restore back to original if possible.

Ron, most areas of Canada did have 25-40 cycle power, but I've found that there are certain large areas that had 50-60 cycle. Any sets that I have purchased out of lower-mainland BC have been 60 cycle. Saskatchewan seems to have had 60 cycle, at least in the southern portion.

Ontario sets seem to be 25 cycle. Most radios from Alberta, where I live, seem to be 25 cycle.
