Unique Heathkit items?

[Hans Sundström]

Hi my friends!

I have, amongst all the other gear i my shack - and everywhere in our house, says my XYL  ;-) - a couple of things that might be quite unusual.

One Heathkit IB1 - that must be one of the first kits from Heathkit - as far as I know built by an old friend of mine around 1949. The piece is in very good shape, hardly used ( I have had it since around 1965 and it was in pristine shape when I bought it from my friend). And it is very nicely built, my friend was amongst other things working for the Police and civil defence wireless communications, building their wireless nets.

One front plate, including the scale and "window" for a Heathkit HW8, absolutely brand new, still in the packing it came from Heathkit.

And now I am curious - how unique are these items?
