Provenance

Whilst looking very much like a Wild Country Flexible Friend from 1987, this one differs slightly in having '00' on the trigger i.e. zero,zero, when the 1987 versions only went down to '0'/zero. Ours also has smooth cams; the 1987 version didn't. It could be that a new trigger and cams have been grafted on to an existing stem - it looks a bit that way.
This particular Friend came with a bag full of old gear from our pal, Jonathon Winter, and provides a nice wee puzzle for the 'geeky' cam collector.
