Wonders Flyover
Re: Wonders Flyover
Yes nice job,
I was wondering whether your machine was made by Wonders Automatics for resale by Kraft Automatics. They did this for Ruffler and Walker, where you often see one of their badges on Wonders machines. I noticed in the original picture what looked like a Krafts badge in the top left corner. Another clue lie in the fact that advertised on the double decker bus is "Kraft Automatics".....Just a thought and may explain the variation in the theme, I could not see this name on the other variation of the same machine. Probably worth keeping the badge if it did say Krafts...

Re: Wonders Flyover
Many thanks for kind comments. There is a badge treefrog which I have misplaced but I will attach it if I ever come across it. I'm not the most observant person and in all the time looking at this have never made the connection between badge and artwork. Interesting that they would do this, though I wonder if there are any others like it?
