merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/27/2021 11:15 am I agree, certainly a different sort of Greaser, but a Greaser nonetheless. Cool one! Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 99221 Posts	Posted 06/27/2021 11:23 am Nice greased strike... Maybe a small glob of hardened grease got in the press. Collecting since 1972.
