You need to give us a full description with details, components, size, condition and state.

We need pics as well, you need to post 5 X 2 days for 10 posts to do so.

Anti-spam security measure that serves us very well.

Then you need to put it in the appraisal thread.

What attributes lead you to conclude it is a
preproduction Paramount?

Way back, one could argue that a pre production Paramount was a Wastyn
