Hello,
thank you for the period photo and the additional information on both versions.
When I saw the high gloss metal version produced by WB, I automatically thought of my ordinary spare wheel being removed without damaging anything. Changing a spare wheel at night, a dark road, a little bit of rain... without damaging the cover... the first thing I would certainly leave in the garage when going on tour the next time would be the WB cover.
Could you - as soon as you take it of - take some detailed photos of the cover: the closing mechanism, the two halves, the outside, the inside... so that no information will be lost on rare original items like the WB cover?
Concerning the period photo of the fabric cover: Is there a better version of the photo available? It is difficult to tell how much of the wheel is covered and how the whole thing is attached to it.
Regards
Frank
