ANATOMY of a BANTAM

A spotter's guide, swap meet wish list, and notes for restoration.

I am niether a judge nor expert. Far from it. I do have some of the relevant materials at hand however, and by sifting through them and resolving inconsistencies, and getting comments from all of you, I believe I can begin with a rough outline and hope it will develop into a bank of information so people can tell what they've got, what they want and what they might be aiming at in a restoration project. I need your comments here, hoping to build up each of the categoies, and new ones, as we go along. Please try to document your submissions. It is better perhaps to have no information than the wrong information. However, where I don't know the answer, but know there is an issue, I raise it.
