Dick Allen Springers

[Fossil]

As many of you know we prepared a write-up about building Dick Allen style Springers at the CBH site a few years ago and kind of left the article hanging in the air towards the end. Even unfinished the article receives the greatest number of hits compared to any other topic on the site and we intend on finishing it if possible but even the initial release caused a great concern with Dick's surviving relatives (who seem to be having an internal conflict as to 'rights') but that's another story altogether.
Anyway we will finish this article with the families permission or not. They do own the Dick Allen Products trade name but I own the copyrights to the drawings I prepared in 1969 so the graphics belong to me although this is still in dispute.
Anyway to make a long story short, contact me if you have an interest in these old fork designs and were in the process of making a set for yourself.
