And that other MKI looks sick as hell. Where’d that one surface at?

They're all slightly different, but nevertheless, all ace! The bonus is that this Australian pedal doesn't leave dots of black paint/rust on my hands from handling it :smashed:

Not sure on the full back story of it yet, other than that it belonged to the father-in-law of the seller, who supposedly played in bands over there. This is actually the third instance of a MKI making it to Australia that I'm aware of, but that's doesn't necessarily mean yet that these things were actually sold there, because the other two (of which one supposedly still sort of survives) were actually brought over by the original owners from the UK...
