Ty at this point (2/93) hadn’t yet decided what color he wanted his original 2nd generation Old Face cats to be. Here we have one in the original stripes fabric – a hybrid of black and gold. Impossible to decide then if this should be a Nip, or a Zip! Very cool to see this original 2nd gen OF Cat in a wild prototype departure.
Rarity Rank: 0/.5. A full departure for a 2nd generation released coveted style piece. WILD color departure. Really a visual feast with this one. And again, it’s OLD. Close to the 1992 pax date golden period.
