Roy, I know what you mean. Of all the trophies I have received, the three first place ignition trophies, the Spirit of 46 Trophy, the Spirit of 52 trophy, and the Nobler trophy are some of my greatest possessions. The Spirit of 46 has an Ohlsson 19 front valve on it with batteries, capacitor, and a switch. Beautifully made as all his trophies are.
