That's a great find...FOTM material.  Usually, I only see the "modern" versions of the Trimline in clear housing.

Doug Rose

thanks Tubaman...funny thing is same seller had one from the 90s with all the colors inside selling for $35.

This looks like is was never used, no scratches or discoloration...very lucky find...as it was on the floor underneath and very tough to spot do the Antiques store trot....Doug

I really have to get out more, $15 that's a score.
Great find Doug.

That was a good find.
I think the Square button trimline with desk base  is the most common clear WE set out there. They are still hard to find.
You got it really cheap. You  should post it in the Find of the month .

 Congratulation on the find Doug. I was thinking, that doesn't look like something Doug would collect :) :) Then I saw your last post  "on it's way to another collection" & it confirmed my suspicion.
