: Of course, I can hardly wait to see this one. It will also be very
: interesting to learn the serial number for this one, to see how
: it fits in with the first Viceroys.
: I am not certain, but I believe that the usual Orange Boy that we
: see, as shown below, may have come before the Viceroy and it may
: have been this one, from which Heuer derived the Viceroy special
: for the Viceroy promotion. So perhaps the sequence was Orange
: Boy, then the Viceroy. Of course, seeing the racer in the
: advertisement wearing what looks like an Orange Boy may support
: the theory, unless it was only the Art Department touching up a
: standard Auatavia to add the stripes on the minute recorder.
: Thanks so much for sharing this discovery!!
