Whizzwheels counter display stand...

Post by familybucket43 »

Treated myself to an early christmas present,got this through a good friend of mine. Stands about 3 feet tall(36 inches) and the top display is metal.Took an empty picture then put some of my whizzwheels collection on it,looks like it could hold 96 long and short cards....... :D

This is just the sort of item to make a collection even more interesting and they must be harder to find than the models designed for it!

A superb catch, very nice.

That's a wonderful display, it looks great loaded up! It makes you shudder when you think of all those cabinets and stands that were simply dumped years ago.

Wonderful display and highlight for every collection. Displaying the own collection on an old
original shop display is the best christmas gift!! Now you need to fill it up.....

Have the same one in my collection and also same style canadian version with tin yellow Whizzwheels topsign.
All are completely filled up with correct long card versions with collector picture.
There are many different ones existing, they made 3 different ones each year! That mean this shown
rotary counter hanging rack, another big (groundstanding) one-sided hanging rack and one hanging rack for wall fitting.
All with the same design tin tops!
Different style of hanging racks in other countries possible.

I put together around 18 different displays/hanging racks of Husky and Corgi Juniors from all periods. And these are only
a few of many existing! The hunt goes on..
