The original examples I have , scrounged from cab 12 wrecks , are of dubious quality . From many perspectives, in plain terms, THEY ARE CRAP ...

I found some NOS examples , made in the UK , at a swap meet. They are pictured here with the tag . Also , one is still inside the plastic cover,, from the 1950's I think.

These are the switches that were in my gun tractor when I got it. I have done a search for Alpha and come up blank.
Does anyone know them and what happened to them after the war?

just to add to the variety, I found one only of these.
Would these still be available?

To find switches of simlar or the same style do a search in google or in Ebay with " ball handle toggle switch" and you will find pretty close to what you are looking for. I was keeping this as my little secret but my monies are being directed towards home reno's at the moment.
