If you didn't look around on that site, you can click on "Gallery" and see a bunch of pictures.

Wow, they "cranked out" not quite 2 a day.

Wonder how old the Gibson workers were at the time that they made 'em.

Gosh darn it! Thanks for the website link. Now I'm gonna be there all day!

Love 9 0274, the control cavity shot. You can plainly see the burst from the backside of it!

Its interesting perusing that list that many of the late 1960 models had stunning tops. Logic would dictate that those would get the left-overs or less-desirable pieces - but that is most certainly not the case. My personal favorite though is 0-9350
