Good afternoon to the list............

Many of us remember the family of TRIMM Headphones from years long gone.

I recently opened a box marked "headphones" and came across several 
variants of the TRIMM sets.   There were some other choice makes in 
there too so I'm glad I looked.

Question here is:  TRIMM made a model called the FEATHERWEIGHT...... 
Can anyone confirm if the name "FEATHERWEIGHT" was embossed into the 
earpieces (as was the case with other Trimm model names) or did it 
simply refer to the size and weight of a particular run of sets?

My 1959 ALLIED catalog shows the Trimm Featherweights, but there is not 
enough picture detail to answer my question.  Otherwise, the plain 
TRIMM set I have matches the Featherweight exactly.  These things were 
produced for years.

Comments or answers?  And why not respond to the list as there are 
others who might like to know.

BTW, we're trying to match up the TRIMM Featherweight to a 1930's era 
ReGen lashup...........not only for looks but for use.
