3 - 3/8” length. With a body likely made by Clark, and probably assembled by Keeling after buying out Clark in about 1913-14, this Expert is unique in a few different ways. It employs the Clark style pointed, holed props, with the front being larger than the rear. It is not, however, wired-through as most Experts are, instead screw eyes are present with a forward washer and a rear bearing. 2 drill holes down the right flank with none down the left side, and these holes were never rigged. Factory white with red head is a rarely seen color on an Expert. It’s got perfect glass eyes, a single belly weight, and “The EXPERT” stamped down the left side. A unique example appearing in Dudley Murphy’s Blue Book on page 64.
Item Dimensions: 3 - 3/8" length.
