[chambers]

you are interpreting it correctly.

Thanks, this is good stuff.

Would you say then that discgolftrader.com has the non-swoosh stock stamped Teebirds labeled incorrectly as "Final Run?"
Link here: http://www.discgolftrader.com/ce/ce_tb.htm

The disconnect between the link and your OP is what prompted my original post.

[apdrvya]

yes, those are final run. they are TL's and say CE Teebird in the swoosh.

 

[chambers]

I was referring to these non-swoosh ones on the bottom of the page. They are labeled Final Run.

[apdrvya]

those kind of look like 4th run t-molds.

 

[chambers]

I agree, they do.

Since that discgolftrader site is used by some as a reference, I wanted to know what was up, if they were labeled incorrectly. It sounds like your educated opinion is, yes they are.

Thanks for the replies, great work in this thread.

Thank you for the insight. Can you help me out with the TL on the right? The one on the left fits all the criteria of a 1st run. The right one is a TL rim even though it says T inside the circle. The right one does have a few "white streaks" when held up to the light. It is definitely more taffy than the left one. It has also changed colors over the years. It was originally more red and now it has become more brownish red. I'd say based on your list above that its a 3rd run. What are your thoughts?

 

[Frolfer12]

Here is a photo of the left one - 1st run.

 

[Frolfer12]

Here is a photo of the right one - 3rd run?

 

[apdrvya]

everything you said is right.
left is 1st run, right is 3rd

 

[Frolfer12]

Just to clarify, these TL's Re not for sale.

 

[Frolfer12]

Thanks again!

Were the weight markings on 1st run clear blue Valks the same as a the rest of the first run markings?

 

[apdrvya]

​

Yep.

So my Valk is a first run because the VK is outside the ring. I wish I hadn't inked my name on it, I only threw it a few times, didn't like the feel of it.

Thanks for creating this thread! Being new to discing, the information thrown out there can be overwhelming. Not that I plan to collect discs, but these pictures and explanations are very helpful!

most likely. do the white streak test to verify. I can't remember when they went from VK to VL (or vice versa)

Any info on CE or zipper top vipers? I have no idea how to tell either. One is from late 2003 and the other from 2004

Ce stopped mid 2003
