Well I was wrong about the short production run of 1965 to 1967 when they shut up shop.

Re: Pictures of Craftversa's
Every now and again an opportunity arises to acquire something much sought after and one of those opportunities presented itself a while back. I discovered some years ago that if you turn these opportunities down you will probably regret it later and you will be a lucky chap to get another one come your way so this chance was grabbed with both hands. Of course I have paid far too much for it but hey I gave up alcohol over 20 years ago and smoking some 12 years ago so with all that money saved an indulgence to give great pleasure is only a substitute to former pleasures and therefore allowed.
The Craftversa is now with Andrew Davis who will wave his magic over it and perhaps I might find an accommodating tench or two in the Spring

Well Found PH. Can only be a source of quiet satisfaction whenever its in use,
Even reliving the memory of its location must bring a certain pleasure, it would for me !
Is the top section still sound?
