There is a reader who contacted me with an item request. I am passing it on to you. For all the Hendryx collectors "out there", please look over your surplus parts and pieces. Keep your eyes open. I would like you to join a scavenger hunt.
The photo above is taken from the 1949 Hendryx trade catalog. It shows two chromium cages. The scalloped cage on the left has glass seed guards with the "fired on" black and white design. The one on the right has a plain, rounded top and has bound plastic seed guards.
The reader is looking for these seed guards. They are a thick vinyl-like plastic that are material-bound on the edges, that go on the front, back, and both sides of the cage.
If you have some that are available for purchase, please write to me at my email address tweetthings53@gmail.com. Or leave a comment here. I appreciate your help as this reader continues the quest to complete a Hendryx cage.
Thank you.
Barbara
