Those are great! Looks similar to my vintage Coleman. I picked it up in the spring as the salmon color matches my 57 Plymouth Sport Suburban. 😁 flic.kr/p/YJ1PKeflic.kr/p/YsN5SG

The Franklin I'm looking at is in northern MI, any chance you are in the midwest, I've only seen a few references to Franklins. Actually I've only seen reference to 3 total, 1 was a redone trailer for sale on ebay, one was on pinterest and another was a person from MI who had attempted to contact the ebay owner asking questions. Mine: as it sits in a woods Would really like to get some idea of year. 2017-09-08_11-47-52 by Corvett crzy, on Flickr Hey CorvettCrzy did you end up getting this Franklin? What are your plans for it? I'm desperately looking for a Franklin Emblem/Badge for my trailer so if you decided to pass on this one, I'd love to buy that Ben Franklin emblem off of it.

davek I'm also looking into making replacement parking light lenses for my vette. It actually doesn't look that difficult -- maybe a possibility for the Franklin emblem in the future?*!

Thanks, I also have a decal guy. It is the cast emblem I'm looking for. Either an original or duplicate because I love the look of it. I don't even know if my trailer had the same emblem in 1958. The decal on the front of mine is also different than yours. The font and everything, so they must have had a lot of variations in the trailers they made over the years
