I spied this complete and original ball top in Ohio. A friend brought it to me. This one is much nicer than my other one. I am so happy. Everyone needs ONE ball top. It runs fine, but the cord is rock hard and the prongs are loose in the GE plug. Attachments:

Interesting to see that it has the full version on the door sticker. I'll have to check if it's like the ck version and therefore not relevant to the cg's.

Everyone needs ONE ball top. Beautiful! Yeah, a ball top is on our "things to keep an eye out for" list. |

I just took a look it's a longer version with a lot of text that relates to only the ball top but I don't have a complete sticker to reproduce it.

Great, now we have another sticker to track down! My ball top just has the top banner style sticker. That cleaned up real nice. The cord is just this side of "safe".

Fascinating. They're still full of little surprises.

This is a CG1-A16. This is all I have. It mentions push to start, so it's correct for a ball top. It also mentions to not start and stop it repeatedly, so idiots did exist in 1934 apparently. Attachments:

Is this the one that was on eBay? And also didn't you sell some ball tops just a year or two ago?

This was in Dayton and was too nice and complete to turn down. I also had a friend coming this way.

If it hadn't ended up in your garage, it'd be in mine. Keep me in mind when you run out of room again!  |
