Description: IMPORTANT - Please Read Before Purchasing: As a general rule, we do not ship outside the continental United States. In some cases, we make an exception, but all our listings indicate where we ship. If you are a non-continental US buyer, PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE THIS ITEM WITHOUT CHECKING WITH US FIRST. For some reason, eBay allows this and as a result, we lose all our current watchers when we relist the item. Many times, buyers do not want to pay the high international shipping costs and we must then re-list the item and start over with buyer exposure. Thank you. ********** Internal Reference ID: 960 IMPORTANT - READ ENTIRE LISTING: These are new old stock gasket set FOLDERS (NO GASKETS) from around the 1940s that have been in storage since the 1990s. The gaskets were removed and are being sold separately. The fronts of the Indian Genuine Parts folders (side with colored logo design) are in fair to good condition. For the most part, there is just dirt and imperfections from storage and age. There is more damage to the outer edges of the folders due to storage position and where more water damage occurred. The reverse of the folder does not have a logo and may have handwritten fitment notes, fingerprints, dirt, etc. Every folder has different imperfections in different areas. All folders may have dust, mold residue and /or a light moldy smell due to water damage and age. We have included photos that show the common imperfections that may be present. The photos are part of the item description. If you need additional photos before purchasing, just let us know. Great for display in a man cave, shop or framed! Listing INCLUDES TWO gasket folders. DOES NOT include gaskets. If you need a gasket set, please see our other listing:Indian Motorcycle 741 WWII Military LOW END Gasket 76297 Jack O'Leary Austin TX Photos of more than one folder are provided to match description notes regarding part numbers and quality. These came from Jack O'Leary's shop in Austin, TX - he was in business from 1947 to 1992 and sold AJS (A. J. Stevens & Co. Ltd), BSAs, Indians, Matchless and Vincents. We believe these gasket folders are from the 1940s. We have also included a photo of the shop from May 1956 (FOR REFERENCE ONLY - not included in this listing). Indian Genuine Parts Gasket Folder Measurements: approximately 15 inches long X 10 inches wide X 2/16 inches thick Part Number printed on front: 76297 or 76 297 or 76297 SET'S Handwritten on back of some folders: Lower Set741-4560 (not sure what this means) Per the handwritten note on the back of some folders, we believe this folder held gaskets for 741 with a 45 cubic inch engine. This also matches a historical site we found that relayed the following: The Army considered the 640 satisfactory after extensive testing; it was durable enough and did what it was supposed to do, but had one drawbackâit was slow. To address the power deficit, a second model, the 741, was created. Outwardly identical to the 641, it used the civilian low-compression version of the 45 cu in Sport Scout powerplant. It appears the 741 was manufactured from 1935 to 1945. Mailing Note: The gasket folder set will be reinforced with cardboard on both sides for protection (vs. just an envelope). ********** MOBILE PHONE BUYERS: Approximately 70% of our sales are made via mobile phone where it may be difficult to read and view pictures.
