Early Mallory - Manual Advance

[kippmw]

Hi all, this Mallory is in my Dad's parts and I'm looking for any history. It is dual points and manual spark advance. I thought all the early Mallory distributors had a Y designation. This one is very worn on the ID plate, but says C 11. Any knowledge on this one?

Jim Linder at Bubba's Ignitions will probably know.

Probably not in use because Mallory discontinued making parts for them. :-(

Thanks Updraught. That's the same one, but the ID plate is in better shape. Here's a couple pics of mine. It looks like it's in decent enough shape to run, but the cap has a crack in it...
