The blue Olympia One, it was completely done over. The axle holders are made of pot metal, not steel on the metal body canisters. Mine were snapped from rough handling (I think dropped), and I had to fabricate something. |

It may be a FrankenLux, but it is most certainly a Golden Jubilee at the core. The depression on the top clinches it, as shown in this pic I found from an older post that shows one with the cover removed.
