JWK 612, also known by commission number X488, is one of the prototype Mayflowers, and it is the one used in much early publicity. It survives, in rough shape but mostly there, and it's currently offered on eBay US. I just thought folks might be interested!

I managed to resist, but I did go to the trouble of getting a shipping quote (a very reasonable £2K).

 What do I know?
