I'll really have to post a picture of mine.

Mine is a natural wood face, that has over 30 years of linseed oil in it.
Was bought way back in 1977 or 1978

My next door neighbour has a Scoop (I think it's blue, if that's possible) I've been trying to prize off of him and when he wants to get rid of it he said I could have it, but I don't like waiting lol.
